The Year in Religious Education

Submitted by mericiadmin on December 21, 2020 - 2:27pm

And we thought 2019 was a year of change! Just as things were settling in towards the end of Term 1, remote learning was upon us. Rather than seeing this as a huge imposition, the Religious Education staff jumped in to the challenge and managed to engage the students with some new ways of doing things – many of which have remained as we returned to the “new normal” once back at school. The variety of new software being used in classes is amazing!

Merici College Green Tip #40 - Suggestions to reduce your waste to landfill this Christmas s

Submitted by mericiadmin on December 15, 2020 - 1:06pm

​Welcome to the last Green Tip of the year!

Usually, the tip at this time of the year has some suggestions for how to reduce your environmental impact at Christmas.

This year, while researching I came across an article that provides 3 useful tips while counting how many tonnes of waste have gone to landfill in the time that readers are visiting their website. It is an eye-opener that provides motivation for reducing our environmental footprint not just during the festive season, but all year around. 

Merici Shorts

Submitted by mericiadmin on December 10, 2020 - 12:43pm

Welcome to what we hope is our first edition of “Merici Shorts”, a publication of short fiction written by our students. This year has been, it’s been said a million times, “unprecedented”. We have become almost blaze about how unusual the year has been. Will it leave the world a changed place, and for the better? Only hindsight will give us the answer to that. Reading this work, I wonder how this year has effected or set the mood of the pieces. It’s an interesting, and perhaps dark, collection of work and I hope you enjoy it.

On sale at the Finance Office, $5.00 each.

We would like to thank all our performers and stall holders for making this day such a great success!
