Australian Provinces

The Provincials of Melbourne and Sydney announced the membership of the new Mission Council for Marist Australia. As this Council of both Marist Brothers and Marist Laity takes up its role over the next couple of years, it will gradually assume many of the responsibilities that have in the past been the remit of the Provincial Council.

The membership of the foundation Council (which will be in office until the formal commencement of the new Australian Province in 2013) are:

• Brother David Hall (Chair) (Headmaster, Marcellin College Randwick; Chair of MSA Regional Council, Sydney);
• Darren McGregor (Deputy Chair) (Principal, Catholic College Bendigo);
• Julia Lederwasch (Deputy Principal, St Francis Xavier’s College, Newcastle),
• Joe McCarthy (Lay Marist Coordinator, Montagne Centre, Melbourne);
• Brother Darren Burge (Principal, The John Berne School, Lewisham),
• Brother Paul Kane (Provincial Councillor; Chair MSA Regional Council, Melbourne);
• Erica Pergorer, (Principal, Lavalla Catholic College, Traralgon);
• Richard Sidorko (Headmaster, Marist College Canberra).
