Br Dominic Mark (Stan) McCabe Bursary

The College Foundation along with former students are proud to announce the establishment of the Br Dominic Mark McCabe Bursary, honouring his commitment and contribution to his students during their time at St Joseph’s College.

A young Br McCabe commenced employment as a classroom teacher in 1949. The College was quick to discover there was more than just teaching to this enthusiastic 22-year-old. “Stan” as he was affectionately known to the students, made his mark as a talented sportsman and a keen supporter of musical productions (with Gilbert and Sullivan amongst his favourites). He was a positive influence on not only the young students he taught, but also on those who joined in many a sporting game, stage

production or were residents of the Boarding House. This remarkable man was an inspiration, friend and advisor to many over the 11 years he was at St Joseph’s.

Brother McCabe is fondly remembered for his cheery disposition, encouragement and genuine concern for all in his care. He had a wonderful rapport with his students and parents alike who were often singing his praises. He continued to positively shape the lives of many young men well into adulthood.

Br McCabe maintains his connection to the College with his attendance at Old Collegian’s Association events and reunions, enjoying catching up with past students, some of whom still visit him today. In 1993 he returned to St Joseph’s to celebrate his Golden Jubilee and in 2010 his dedication to the College was
