This edition honours 150 years of Loreto in Australia and South East Asia, and reflects on the enduring power of education to shape lives, communities, and futures.
In 1875, Mother Gonzaga Barry and her companions arrived in Australia with a vision for education grounded in faith, courage, and service. Today, that legacy continues through the global Mary Ward network, where education remains one of the most powerful ways to uphold dignity, open opportunity, and support lasting change.
Inside this edition, you will read about the 150 Years of Loreto travelling exhibition, which celebrates the creativity, history, and shared spirit of Loreto schools across Australia. Through art, poetry, performance, and storytelling, the exhibition reflects the richness of the Loreto tradition and the call to continue building on what has come before.
This edition also shares stories of education in action across the world. In West Bengal, India, the Brickfield Schools Program is helping children from migrant families continue learning despite seasonal movement, harsh working conditions, and the pressures of poverty. Through open-air classrooms, meals, health awareness, and support to enter government schools, children are being given the chance to imagine a different future.
In Zambia, Sancta Maria College of Nursing and Midwifery celebrated its first graduating class, marking a powerful milestone for Lukulu and the surrounding region. By training local healthcare professionals, the college is strengthening access to care and creating new pathways for young people.
You will also read about early education in Gari-uai, Timor-Leste, where uniforms are helping children feel included and proud to learn, and the Vinh Loc Learning Support Program in Vietnam, where children from migrant families are gaining literacy, confidence, belonging, and hope.
Together, these stories remind us that education is never only about the classroom. It is about dignity, connection, possibility, and the future we build together.
