The celebration of the life of St Angela Merici was very successful and students and staff thoroughly enjoyed the day. The generous support displayed by students, staff and the parent community was outstanding. The whole experience brought our community closer and confirmed our connection of heart and mind.
May we all continue to be inspired by the words and actions of St Angela Merici, to “challenge people to love life, have hope, be faithful and build futures more wondrous than you dare to dream”.
As the Merici College community gathered on Friday 20 May for St Angela Merici Day, we celebrated the life of Angela Merici, our Patron Saint, who will be remembered as a revolutionary woman and who continues to inspire us each day.
The celebratory activities commenced in Pastoral Care with students gifting a St Angela Merici medal ‘Pray For Us’ to another student in their PC group and exploring our College theme #SERVIAM. Students remembered St Angela as an educator of women from all classes of society.
Congratulations to all our students for their outstanding participation in our 2022 Athletics Carnival! We hope you had a great day.
We would like to thank our students for their outstanding participation in all the events at our 2022 Athletics Carnival held at the AIS.

We would like to thank our mothers, grandmothers and significant others for celebrating this special occasion with us and wholeheartedly thank our Hospitality students for their exceptional work.
Happy Mother's Day everyone!
On Friday 6 May, our College was honoured by the presence of more than 90 mothers, grandmothers and significant others from our Merici family. The focus of the Prayer was centred around the love of a mother and ongoing nurturing that mothers provide to their children every day. Students wrote messages of thanks, appreciation and love to their mums and significant others; recognising the important role they play in their lives. After the Prayer, guests and students enjoyed a delicious lunch prepared and served by Senior Hospitality students.
We would like to acknowledge the wonderful contribution made by students which, in no small part, contributed to the success of our Open Day. Over 200 students participated in Open Day activities during the day and into the night. The students were all wonderful ambassadors for our school and we have received excellent feedback from all our visitors on your exceptional skills in conducting school tours, participating in Science, Mathematics, Food Technology, Art and Textiles classroom activities, presenting dance. music, vocal and drama performances..
Welcome back to Term 2!
While we were on holidays, it was International Earth Day on April 22nd. A timely moment to reflect on the business climate, the political climate, and how to act on the climate challenge.
Now is the time to preserve and protect our health, our families, our livelihoods, our food security and our biodiversity.
In honour of Earth Day 2022, act (boldly), innovate (broadly), and implement (equitably).
It’s going to take all of us.
All in.
