St Angela Merici Day Mass, Friday 1 June. May we all continue to be inspired by the words and actions of St Angela Merici, to “challenge people to love life, have hope, be faithful and build futures more wondrous than you dare to dream”.
We would like to thank the Merici community for attending our BBQ on Wednesday 28 March. It was great to see so many students, parents, staff and community members attending. Particular thanks and appreciation is extended to our Canteen amd Hospitality staff and students who prepared an amazing meal.
We would like to thank all our students on their participation at our Athletics Carnival. The day was a great success!
The Merici College school community welcomed parents, friends and representatives of Catholic Education at their Opening School Mass on Tuesday 27 February which was celebrated by principal celebrant Father Bernie Patterson and Fr Paul Nulley and Fr Kieran Adams who assisted him. The Merici community embraced their 2018 College theme,Year of Youth and Spreading Joy as they celebrated their mission and vision of building a loving community that is strong in faith. We would like to thank everyone for joining us for this very special celebration.
We hope all our Year 10 students and guests enjoyed the evening.
The theme for this year’s Book Week is Escape to Everywhere. At Merici we have had a world of fun. The iC became the Swamp with Shrek and Fiona, joined by a range of characters from various fairy tales and books escaping to the swamp. Throughout the week there have been quizzes in Pastoral Care, lunch time Scavenger Hunts, culminating today with the Dress Up Parade.
The Year 9 Spirituality Day was held on campus on Wednesday 16 August. The day addressed issues of limiting values and motivated students to tear away the mask – looking to strengthen their faith. Also included in the program was a presentation on mental health led by Batyr (www.batyr.com.au) and a powerful affirmation exercise.
Congratulations to all our students on their academic achievements throughout Semester 1.
