Year 10 Social

A great night of fun and dancing was shared with our Year 10 students at their Social. We hope that you all had a great night.

Special thanks to all our staff who helped with the planning. We would like to extend our special thanks to Danni and her team for preparing delicious canapes, as well as Mark and Vincent for their AV expertise.

Merici College Green Tip #30: 6 tips to boost biodiversity in your backyard from Greening Australia

Have you heard about the biodiversity crisis and want to help?

The good news is that you can start in your own back yard.

  1. Plant locally native species
  2. Create layers of habitat
  3. Provide food, water and shelter
  4. Install habitat such as bee hotels and nesting boxes
  5. Reduce lawn area
  6. Remove environmental weeds and known invasive species.

For more information:

Merici College Green Tip #29 - Sw(op) Shop is back! Clear out your wardrobe!

It's Sw(OP) shop time!

That means it is time to spring clean! Over the holidays, start gathering your unwanted, clean, re-usable items and prepare to send them into Merici in Term 4!

Fact: 50% of all fabric ever made is now in landfill.

Fact: 30 million pairs of jeans are sold in the world DAILY

​Be part of the solution by supporting the annual SW(OP) shop, either by donating, buying for a gold coin, or BOTH.

SW(op) shop will be in Term 4, Friday November 1st.

Clean, re-usable donations only please.
