Historical information

This prayer card is given to all new staff at Marcellin College on their third induction day. On this day, they learn about being part of the Marist community 'In the Champagnat Way'.

Significance

St Marcellin Champagnet was the founder of the Marists. He realised that not all children were having an education. The student's who were having an education did so under cruel teaching conditions. He trained teachers to teach student's in a loving and caring way. This is a prayer to bless all teachers to teach in this same way.
