    In the year 1137 Abbot Suger of St. Denis‚ France envisioned something different for his church.

    One of Skrzynecki’s main focuses in ‘St Patrick’s College’ is the disconnections from the environment.

The persona’s disconnections are further reinforced by the irony of ‘I stuck pine needles into the motto.’ The motto represents the core values of the school and
