Youth Ministry Team

Each fortnight, the YMOs will interview a student or staff member. This week we have the college’s new Leader of Catechesis, Mrs Sarah de Byl. Welcome back to the college, Sarah.

What is your favourite movie?

The Castle - it reminds me of my family (a little bit) and I love the Aussie humour

How does it feel to be working at your old high school?

Very different and even though things are familiar they are definitely not the same. 

Is there a particular Saint you are inspired by?

Mary Mackillop - she was a great visionary, a rebel and never took no for an answer when she could see the greater good. I love how she treated people and how she always stood up for what was right even when it meant personal sacrifice. 

Why did you become a Religion teacher?

I wanted to share my love of the church and the Catholic Faith. To inspire my students to do great things and know that no matter where they go in the world they will always have a family (the Church) and someone who loves them unconditionally (God).
