October 13, 2020
FACE THE MUSIC: As handbells practiced with Boomwhackers outside of the choir room on Sept. 17, senior Natalie Erhard gets ready to sort each instrument. Boomwhackers are hollow plastic tubes that are used as instruments. “We are using boomwhackers for a couple of fun pieces that are a little more casual for MD Unplugged,” Erhard said. MD Unplugged is an event showcasing the school’s soloists, small groups, and handbells which will take place on Oct. 17 at 7:30pm in the Grotto

The Mater Dei Varsity Girls Water Polo Team faced off against the Laguna Beach Breakers on Dec. 13 in a legendary match. The Monarchs won the game with a final score of 12-6. Not only did these girls demonstrate their shooting accuracy, swimming speed, and excellent teamwork, they displayed their passion and dedication for the sport. “I would say [water polo has taught] me perseverance, resilience, discipline, and to trust my teammates and coaches,” senior Mia Sullivan said.
