It is such a joy to listen to the hive of activity and buzz of excitement filling the corridors of Merici College! I feel honoured to part of the Merici school community again this year and am very excited to see what 2023 will bring. One thing that I have learnt throughout 2022, is that Merici college is inclusive, supportive, and kind and I look forward to watching this thrive throughout the year.
I am excited to announce that this year we welcome a new member to our counselling team and the College community, Chelsea Kent.
“A big warm hello to all the students, families and teaching and support staff at Merici. I am Chelsea, and I will be joining forces with the lovely Hannah as the second School Counsellor for Merici College. I will be at Merici Monday’s, Thursday’s and Friday’s. Please pop by Hannah’s or I’s office to say hello! I speak on behalf of Hannah and I, when I say we are so excited to embrace the Merici community this year and look forward to strengthening relationships, focusing on student wellbeing and embracing all academic and positive learning outcomes.”
