St Mary’s College joyfully extends our blessings to the newly elected Pope Robert Prevost, who has taken the name Pope Leo XIV. We warmly welcome him and look forward with hope to his leadership in the Catholic Church.

As we welcome this new chapter, we also pause to honour the life and legacy of Pope Francis, whose papacy inspired millions through his humility, advocacy for the marginalised, and deep commitment to mercy and compassion. May his memory continue to guide and bless the Church.

At St Mary’s, we strive to reflect these same values by advocating for and empowering students who are deaf or hard of hearing across our partner schools—ensuring every student has a voice and feels safe and connected.

May Pope Leo XIV's papacy be marked by wisdom, compassion, and a deep dedication to unity, justice, and peace.

🕊️ Pope Leo XIV, may the Holy Spirit guide you always.
