What is an IB Education?
Merici College is an IB World school, authorised to deliver the IB Diploma and candidate school* for the Middle Years Programme (MYP). We are continuing our implementation of the MYP with Years 7 to 9, but what makes an IB education different?

Dear Parents, Carers and Students,
I am conscious that there are a number of health and safety issues which may be concerning you at this time. I hope the following information will assist you in understanding how our school is responding to these.

Funeral arrangements for Christine (Chris) Fraser, former teacher of Merici College
A celebration of Chris’s life will take place at St Monica’s Catholic Church, 18 Defell Street Evatt on Saturday 1 February, 2020 commencing at 11am. Current and past students are invited to form a guard of honour at the conclusion of the Mass. Current students are also invited to wear their Summer Merici College uniform to the service. We strongly advise parents/guardians to accompany their daughter(s).
It is with absolute sadness and a heavy heart that we announce the death of our beloved colleague, Christine (Chris) Fraser.
Chris died peacefully this afternoon, Monday 27 January 2020, after a long battle with cancer (which she fought with great integrity and tenacity) at Clare Holland House.
Chris was a teacher at Merici College for 35 years – she taught Integrated Humanities, Religious Education, History, English and Maths. One her passions was tennis (we will be dedicating the tennis courts in her honour).
Welcome, Merici sisters, staff, and families to the 2020 school year. We hope that all of you have had a restful holiday and are eager to get back into school life. We especially welcome our Year 7s, new students and staff to the College; we cannot wait for you to meet the rest of our Merici College family. We are super excited for the year ahead and are thrilled to start listening and collaborating on everyone’s ideas. We are incredibly blessed to have a strong leadership team for 2020.
Merici College has always put our girls at the heart of everything we do. Over the past 8 years we have undertaken a school-wide plan to increase academic and practical outcomes for all our students, increase engagement in STEM subjects, encourage co-curricular participation and more, www.merici.college.
