Stories from Hungary

May 25, 2022 | Alumni News, Media

Last week Fr. Julius and Fr. Bernard shared some stories from Hungary, from their youth, and from their time as Form Masters with the Form I students. “That was so cool!” one exclaimed as he head back to his classroom. “When can we hear from them again?”

Alumni, some of whose sons were in the room, would have enjoyed hearing Fr. Bernard’s “footnotes,” or Fr. Julius’ tales of his family’s bakery in Budapest.

Alumni weekend is right around the corner! Swing by and say hi to your classmates, your Form Master, and your favorite monks and teachers.
