Merici College Green Tip #37 - National Threatened Species Day

7 September is National Threatened Species Day.

This date marks a sad day in Australia's history - the death of the last Tasmanian Tiger in 1936.

National Threatened Species Day brings attention to all the Australian native animal and plant species that are facing similar fates to that of the Tasmanian tiger.

2023 Book Week

Congratulations to the Book Week Committee who worked hard to prepare so many wonderful activities to celebrate Book Week, Read, Grow, Inspire. We have enjoyed a week-long celebration about books, illustrators, characters, and authors. Along with daily PC quizzes, our students participated in a Cake Decorating competition, Scavenger Hunt, Trivia and an amazing Dress Up Parade where students and staff were invited to come to school dressed up as their favourite recognisable book character or matching the theme.

We hope everyone had a great week.
