Congratulations to a debating team from Merici who has won the gold medal of the Middle School Ethics Olympiad. The Ethics Olympiad is a competition that involves debating skills, critical thinking and creativity, with teams from various high schools across the ACT. Students form a panel to debate “ethical issues” ranging from privacy and technology to the environment, charity and friendship.

Our 2019 Showcase is a celebration of the artistic gifts and talents of all our students. The subjects highlighted in the exhibition are Dance, Photography, Visual Arts, Media, Music, Vocal and Drama. The ‘Arts’ consists of visual and performing arts and the students presented a very professional and entertaining program. The Merici College Dance Troupe performed wonderful routines that showcase their diversity. The Vocal Group were outstanding as they performed vocal pieces. And the talents of our bands and ensembles has been outstanding this year.

A special thank you to Fiona and Felicity Maher, Sustainability Officer and the SAM team!!
