For all families interested in learning more about Merici College. The Talk and Tour will consist of a brief introduction to the College by the Principal and a student-led tour.
Today, at the ACT Legislative Assembly, four Year 7-8 Merici students participated in the School’s Parliamentary debate.
The students got the opportunity to conduct these debates in the main chamber of the Legislative Assembly and the event was moderated by the Speaker of the House.
Six schools participated in the debate this morning, representing schools from Catholic Education, the public and independent sectors. There were three questions up for debate, with schools arguing for and against.
Merici successfully argued that the ACT flag should not be changed.
We would like to thank all students and staff for supporting this most worthwhile initiative and would like to express heartfelt gratitude to St Vincent de Paul and the Night Patrol Van for the invaluable contribution they make to our community. The Merici College students, together with Merici Board member Anne-Marie Cooper and Anna Masters, College Principal have raised $9,110, an outstanding effort. We thank members of our community for their generous donations.
Canberra’s cold temperatures set in for Merici College Year 10, 11 and 12 students and teachers who rose to the challenge on Thursday 17June for the annual Vinnies School Sleepout.

Henry Matisse said "Creativity takes courage". This year at our Showcase, we see the hard evidence that we have courageously creative students at Merici College. Aren't we privileged to bear witness to this fact this year! I am constantly impressed by the innovative, individual and powerful talent of the media makers, artists, designers, actors, dancers, dramatists, photographers, graphic artists, instrumentalists and vocalists here at Merici.
Congratulations to all our students exhibiting their wonderful Creative Arts work and performing at our Showcase this year. Our students are creative young women and we are all very proud of you. You have followed your interests and passions. Stay courageous in all you do!
The United Nations celebrates World Ocean Day on June 8.
This year’s theme, The Ocean: Life & Livelihoods, highlights the wonder of the ocean and how it is our life source, supporting humanity and every other organism on earth.
While critically important to humanity and all species, oceans are also fragile.
Oceans are an asset we must look after for the sake of all life and livelihoods.
