Kildare College is delighted to announce that earlier this month after consultation with students, staff and Kildare Education Ministries, it was decided that the multi-purpose centre will be called, the ‘Brigidine Centre’.
It was important for the name to have a meaningful connection for the College, and be reflective of the Colleges history, traditions and future.
The name honours the five Brigidine sisters who, at the time, set up a new Brigidine school called Kildare in the North East of Adelaide. It recognises the hard work of all Brigidine Sisters who taught at the College throughout its history, and the presence of the Brigidine Sisters in Adelaide - educating young women in the Brigidine tradition. It also cements the importance of their hard work to future Kildare generations.
It was a momentous occasion for Kildare College in October of this year as the newest building on the College’s landscape was finished and handed over from the Builder, Sarah Constructions, to the College after 180 days of construction.
The Brigidine Centre will be officially opened and blessed in May, 2019.
