St Vincent de Paul Christmas Appeal on now!

Our Merici College annual St Vincent de Paul Christmas appeal starts today, Monday 16 November. We all know that 2020 has not been the best year for a lot of people in our community so let’s see if we can put some smiles on faces at Christmas time! Please support our appeal by buying a gift and leaving it unwrapped under the Christmas tree in Students Services or make a cash donation and give it to your PC teacher. Please be generous and do what you can to support those in our community so that we can all enjoy Christmas this year!

Year 12 Farewell Assembly

Today our Year 12 students were formally farewelled by the Merici College community at a special assembly. On behalf of the staff and students, Mrs Wholley thanked the Year 12 students for the wonderful contribution they have made to Merici College over the years, “Strive with all your might to remain as you are called by God and to seek and desire all the ways and means necessary to persevere and make progress to the very end.” St Angela Merici

Every year at the Opening Assembly since 2013 I have concluded with the words:

Merici Sw(op) Shop Thanks!

Thanks everyone for supporting our #MericiSAM Sw(op) Shop on Tuesday 3 November. Your gold coin donation will go to WWF's Koala's Forever Programme. The iconic Australian koala is facing extinction. After the bushfires with 6000 koalas lost in NSW alone, some key koala populations became officially extinct. WWF has a plan to double koala numbers along our east coast by 2050 and, in so doing, pull the precious populations we have left back from the brink.
