Who is St. Anne?

St. Anne is revered as the patron saint of mothers, educators, and families. She is a model of wisdom, devotion, and guidance—qualities essential to both parenting and teaching. As an educator, she instilled in Mary the faith and knowledge that would shape the history of salvation. Because of this, St. Anne is a powerful intercessor for teachers and students alike, inspiring a commitment to learning, faith, and service.

At St Anne’s, we honour her legacy by fostering a learning environment rooted in knowledge, love, and service, just as she did for Mary. Through education, we seek to follow her example, helping students grow not only in knowledge but also in faith and character.

Her feast day is celebrated on 26th July in the Roman Catholic Church

Guide us to become the people you created us to be, following the example of your Son, Jesus Christ.  ​

 

Allow us to lift each other up in mind, heart and spirit, uniting our St Anne’s family in our mission to give glory to God and make the world a better place.  ​

Amen
