Many Holy Child schools celebrate Foundation Day on October 15. This year it is particularly special as the Society is marking 175 years (and the African Province is celebrating 90 years.)

Mayfield School in Mayfield, England, celebrated Foundation Day with a host of fun activities and performances including Inter-House General Knowledge Quizzes, Inter-House Music, and its first socially-distanced play, ‘Scenes from Alice in Wonderland’ featuring a cast of 37 girls performing in various locations around the School grounds.
