History & Tradition of St. Maximilian
Kolbe
St. Maximilian Kolbe Catholic School opened its doors to the community in
September, 1984 with a beautiful new building, an enthusiastic staff and 268
students. The spirit of the school is founded on the devotion to St.
Maximilian Kolbe, a Polish friar, imprisoned in Auschwitz Death Camp in the
Second World War, who offered his life in place of another condemned to
death. As such, St. Maximilian is recently admitted to the canon of the
Church, and is a concrete example of Christian love amidst evil.
Pat McLaughlin was the founding principal and Maeve
Jara, the school association president.
Reverend Matthew Robbertz, Pastor at
Epiphany of Our Lord Parish, offered a solemn blessing on the school and
its community.
The school crest was designed in 1984 by Sean Jara,
Grade 8 pupil. The school song, dedicated to St. Maximilian Kolbe, was
written by Tony De Cristofaro, teacher.
Bolt, the school mascot, was adapted from the sports’ team name, the
Kolbe Lightning.
The school celebrated its 10th anniversary during the 1994/95 school
year with a celebration organized by staff and parents. Marina Kolbe,
great grand-niece of St. Maximilian Kolbe, addressed the community
during the anniversary celebration. St. Max closed as an
elementary school in June 2011 and is currently used as the Midland
North Campus of Monsignor Fraser College.
