My chosen word is SPIRIT. Merici provided me with some great foundations for my life now, the way I conduct myself and what I'm passionate about at work. When I think of my time at Merici, I think of the word 'Spirit'. I remember the letter I received in Year 6, welcoming me into the Brescia 'family', I remember House cheers and the sense of belonging and community I felt when I was at school, surrounded by teacher and people who I knew really cared about me.
The word I have chosen is KINSHIP.
My chosen word is KINSHIP. I remember an incredible level of support and bonding with the girls and teachers while at Merici College.
After graduating from Merici, I first studied a Bachelor of Science with Honours, which I used to study lions. I then went on to teaching Science for six years before now working as a veterinary nurse.

The word I have chosen is Independence
It’s hard to come up with one word. I loved my time at Merici and I think many of the things I was taught at Merici helped me to become an independent person and strive to achieve my dreams and goals and to never hold myself back.
The celebration of the life of St Angela Merici was very successful and students and staff thoroughly enjoyed the day. The generous support displayed by students, staff and the parent community was outstanding. The whole experience brought our community closer and confirmed our connection of heart and mind.
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”.
