Meaning of "Notre Dame" Print E-mail
The French words "Notre Dame" mean "Our Lady". In order to express their deep devotion and respect for this unique woman, Catholic Christians call Mary "Our Lady". Notre Dame College has been dedicated to this majestic lady Mary, because her role was extraordinary in Jesus' life, as he "increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man". Notre Dame College has been named thus because the aim and objective of the college is to help students with motherly affection and love to develop themselves as fully matured human beings. Entering the main gate one can notice the mosaic picture of Mary teaching the boy Jesus.
