Last week we celebrated Mary Potter Day, marking 140 years since the arrival of the Little Company of Mary Sisters in Australia.

To honour this remarkable legacy, Tony, Hannah, Kate and Sean delivered freshly baked scones to staff across the wards at Calvary's Hobart hospitals as part of our celebrations. The roving tea trolley was a heartfelt gesture of hospitality — a small way to thank our teams and reflect on Mary Potter’s enduring message of “Being for Others.”
