School Song and Prayer

Mater Dei School Song

Oh Mater Dei, Oh Mater Dei,
We come to you on your winding way.
You teach us how to learn and play
We love you Mater Dei

God called the Good Sam Sisters
To teach a peaceful way
Showing us who is neighbour
Trusting in every way.
Granting to all inclusion
Asking us all to share,
Gifts of the Holy Spirit,
Showing God that we care.

Oh Mater Dei, Oh Mater Dei,
We come to you on your winding way.
You teach us how to learn and play
We love you Mater Dei.
We love you Mater Dei.

Mater Dei School Prayer

Loving God,
Be with us each day.
Fill our hearts with joy,
Fill our minds with learning,
Fill our school with peace.
Help us to be kind, safe and respectful. 

Thank you for the gifts of our school;
Our environment,
Our staff, families and friends.
May our school be a community of welcome and celebration,
where our abilities and talents are nurtured, so that
the strong have something to yearn for and the weak have nothing to run from.
Saint Benedict, pray for us.
Mary the Mother of God, pray for us.
Amen
