Iftar Dinner at Unity Grammar
On Tuesday, 5th March, Mr. O’Neill, Ms. Neasy, and the College Captains had the privilege of attending an Iftar dinner at Unity Grammar, alongside students and staff from other schools in the Wollongong Diocese.
Iftar is the evening meal that breaks the fast during Ramadan, a sacred month of fasting, prayer, and reflection for Muslims. Our representatives experienced this special tradition firsthand, sharing in a meal that was both delicious and deeply meaningful.
Before the dinner, they had the opportunity to witness the Maghrib prayer, gaining insight into the devotion and spiritual practices of the Islamic faith. Throughout the evening, they engaged in conversations about faith, culture, and the significance of Ramadan, strengthening interfaith understanding and respect.
The hospitality shown by Unity Grammar was truly exceptional, with a warm welcome and a beautifully prepared meal that reflected the generosity of the occasion. It was a memorable evening of learning, connection, and community, and we are grateful for the opportunity to take part in this significant event.
