Year 11:

Merici College Year 9 and 10 Defence students participated in a combined schools’ Defence Activity session at B-Firm Swing into Life on Wednesday 18 September. This was an opportunity for students of Defence personnel to participate in a range of challenging activities which encourage: leadership, problem-solving, cooperation and communication.

The girls had a fantastic time!

We would like to thank our dancers for supporting this community event!

This event is in its fourth year running and was initiated three years ago by two staff members, Trish Young and Tookie Capezio, as a way of broadening the experiences of Senior Hospitality students. It also gives the students with the opportunity of providing a service to those members in our community who need our help most.  On behalf of all the Merici College community, we commend Trish, Tookie and the students on their wonderful endeavours, and congratulate them for the first-class, degustation menu that they prepared on Saturday night.

As part of Catholic Schools Week Discover New Horizons,  Belinda visited Merici College to conduct a Writer’s workshop with students from Years 7-9 and an Author talk for Year 7 students.

We congratulate Jade Esler (Year 11) on her selection to participate in the Royal Australia Air Force Camp for Young Women.
