A gift and blessing after 21 years
Marist Brothers Linmeyer celebrates the blessing of the new Multi-Purpose Hall.
On October 19, Marist Brothers Linmeyer was honoured to have Father Dave Dryden, who has been the school’s resident priest for over 24 years, bless the new multi-purpose hall completed in 2020 on the high school campus.
The new high school was completed in 1998 but has been without a hall of its own for the past 21 years. The existing hall on the primary school campus had to be shared by both schools.
It was also a privilege to have Brother Vincent and Brother Christopher present. Special mention must be made of Brother Christopher, as he was the first principal of Marist Brothers Linmeyer in 1965.
Both architects from SVPS Architects, Silvio Vasconcelos and Jorge Ferrao, who have designed so many of the buildings, were also on hand to be thanked for their valuable input and efforts over the past 24 years.
The board chairperson, Ursula Botoulas, as well as staff and learners, also joined to celebrate the blessing.
