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 celebration of the Feast Day of Saint Angela Merici was an important celebration in recognition of our Patron Saint Angela Merici, our Founding Orders and our College Houses. The day commenced with a very special Mass. Fr Emil presented an inspirational homily, recognising the love and unity of the community of Merici College.
We would like to thank members of our Dance Troupe who performed at the Haig Park Village Markets on Sunday 9 May for Mother's Day.
The performances were absolutely amazing with our girls having a wonderful time dancing for all the mums in the crowd.
An all-weather synthetic track means that rain, hail or shine your carnival can go ahead and that it did! Thank you to our courageous Merici College students for braving the delightful weather and contributing to the success of the carnival. The participation, team spirit and attendance at the carnival was a beautiful reminder of the special community we have here at Merici College.
Thank you to all staff and parents who contributed to making the carnival a success.
