Wakakirri @ Holy Spirit North Ryde

“Our story, “Miracles Happen” is based on the life and ministry of Mary Mackillop. This year is 100 years since her death and she is very close to becoming Australia’s first saint. Our performance shows the positive impact that Mary Mackillop made on the lives of many Australians. Sharing this story shows how one person can change the lives of many and teaches us how to live through the example of Mary Mackillop and each try to make a positive impact on the world ourselves.”

Mary MacKillop and Wakakirri by Carla O & Jenna C

Our Wakakirri item this year is “Miracles Happen” which is based on Mary Mackillop’s first miracle.

During our practices we have been learning about Mary Mackillop and how she lived her life.

Mary MacKillop was:
· Brave
· Believed in herself
· Not afraid of what other people thought of her and what she did
· A very powerful person

The cast are enjoying learning new steps and how much COURAGE Mary Mackillop had!

Mary MacKillop.... A woman who dared to believe in her dream
