The Marist Alumni Project identifies and celebrates the contribution Marist educated men and women have made to our nation. This project aligns itself with Marcellin Champagnat’s call to all of us, particularly in the education of the young, to ‘form good Christians and virtuous citizens.’
The main outcome of this project is the creation of an Anthology of Outstanding Australian Marist Alumni. The Anthology is a way of recognising those alumni who have made a significant and outstanding contribution to Australian life. All our schools and organisations unquestionably have many, many ex-students who have gone on to became highly productive, influential and honourable citizens of this country. The intent of the Marist Alumni Project is to capture some of those who have truly made their mark on Australian society.
Marist schools are invited to provide further nominations to the Marist Alumni: submit nominees via the online form.
