MARIST BROTHERS HIGH SCHOOL DARLINGHURST OLD BOYS' UNION:
Office: 6 Austral St, Malabar 2036 Postal: P.O.B. 6177, Malabar 2036
MBHS Darlinghurst Old Boys' Union Initiative
In keeping with OBU tradition of supporting Marist causes, while pursuing the ideals of the newly-formed Marist Assn of St Marcellin Champagnat , which Br. Norman Hart spoke on at the July 2015 luncheon, the OBU resolved to continue supporting, what had been a young, lone Marist voice in 2009 (1miracle.org), promulgating "The Children's Manifesto".
That young voice of a son of a Darlo Old Boy, has since gathered many other young voices in numerous languages. Like a wildfire, the statement of rights of children is burning a pathway across nations, into the aspirations of the young, to forge a better way forward for humankind. The movement has made its way to universities, where students are attempting to change the face of this new millennium.
A petition for assistance from some the uni students, calling for assistance from other uni students, to help lead the way, can be viewed at Gen3M.com or follow this link uni students presentation.
In progress is a theatrical production at UNSW, a mini-series and a documentary.
In 2020 the world witnessed, for the first time, The Children's Manifesto going around the globe in 10 languages, preceded by a vigil of students from Marist College Canberra, initiating the relay across countries and cultures.

We the
children, the innocent, the impoverished, the fun-loving, the abused,
the trusting, the disillusioned, the homicidal, the forgiving, the
suicidal, the hope-filled, we ask to be heard.
We the
children know; our new millennium's dawning.
Like
dawning's rays spread hope
A blessed
path awaits us
Deliver us
not from evil, for only God will do that,
But unto
that, which we can justly say is ours.
A world in
which we may
Have a
parent, or two,
Be creative;
and never want for food,
Be open and
free to trust,
Be innocent
and free of the horrors of war;
Be healthy
and never want for medicine,
Be able to
use our inspiration, both collective and individual, and simply ask you,
and others, to accept our inherent, abundant love to help build a better
world.
