The entire Iona College community sends our love, prayers, and support to our friends at All Hallows’ School, particularly the family and friends of Stella Medeiros-Hodge, as they come to terms with this terrible and tragic news.
May God’s strength and comfort be with you. May He bless you all, and take Stella into his care.
At such a time of sadness, it is worth revisiting the words of our Rector Fr Joe Antony OMI from late last year.
