Apostolate

Our apostolic activities lie in areas related to Catholic education. This usually involves such activities as:

• Preparing and coordinating R.E. Programmes
• Writing text-books
• Class-room teaching
• Assistance to Home-School families
• Giving lectures/talks/conferences on faith-topics
• Writing for and editing Catholic publications.

We only engage in part-time apostolic work, thereby remaining free to carry out the duties of the liturgical celebration, study and prayer and the conventual life to which we are committed. Currently we also serve the families of  Saint Mary MacKillop Colleges Wagga Wagga. The Sisters teach part-time in the college and are in charge of its Religious Education Program, and teach RE and other

 subjects.

10^th Anniversary for Saint Mary MacKillop Colleges, Wagga Wagga. 2007 - 2017

Saint Mary MacKillop Colleges, Wagga Wagga celebrated its 10^th year.
We thank the founders (the Andrews), the Board and our many friends and families for their support of this school.
We sisters are privileged to be part of its history, and feel truly honoured to teach and guide such children.

The Conventual Sisters of St Dominic have been involved with this independent, counter-cultural Catholic school from the outset. They wrote (and teach) the Year 7 – 10 RE programme, 'The Faith of the Church' and the classical 7 - 10 English programme. They also teach Religion, Church History and Scripture from K - 12, and teach a variety of other subjects in the Secondary school. To safeguard their religious life, however, the Sisters teach in the mornings only and devote the rest of their day to the monastic observances of prayer, work, study and silence with God.
