We are very excited to be representing you this year and look forward to our challenge of supporting you all as beautiful butterflies. Yesterday we welcomed our Year Seven and new students to our wonderful community. We hope you will settle in quickly and feel at home here. And to our senior peers we recognise that your Merici journey is coming to an end, however we encourage you to continue to share your experiences and inspire our younger sisters to be the best versions of themselves.
A special welcome to those new to our Merici College family. At our Opening Assembly held today, I was so pleased to have the entire school together to celebrate the beginning of this academic year.
The 2017 theme is United in Hope.
We would like to welcome all our new and returning students to the first day of Term 1.
We wish to pass on our congratulations and best wishes to all our Graduands for 2016: 138 students received their Senior Secondary Certificate.
