Year 10 Creative Voices - Aislinn McArdle's 'The Path to My Voice'

Last semester, Year 10 Creative Voices students were asked to write a sustained piece of prose fiction. This is the only class that offers students the opportunity to write extended pieces of creative writing. Over the next few weeks, we will be providing you with the opportunity to read these beautiful pieces of writing and see just how talented our girls are in English!

This week, Aislinn McArdle’s piece titled The Path to My Voice  presents a dystopian world where humans are unable to speak.

Student Achievement - 2018 Equestrian NSW Interschool State Championships

We congratulate Charly Robinson (Year 7) on her achievements at the 2018 Equestrian NSW Interschool State Championships held in Sydney.  Charly competed in the 90cm secondary class and with her placings over the 3 days, won overall champion 90cm secondary.  There were 60 competitors from across the state up to Year 12 in the 90cm class, so to win overall champion is an amazing achievement.  The win should qualify Charly for the NSW Interschools team to compete at the Australian Championships in Melbourne during October.

Did You Know That Our Waste Is Growing At Double The Rate Of Our Population?

Proposed ACTION School Bus Network - Have Your Say!

As you may be aware, Transport Canberra has proposed a new bus network for schools, as well as changes to other regular services.

The school services planned as part of this new network have been designed based on a new School Bus Policy. This draft policy relates to the provision of school bus services as part of Canberra’s broader public transport network, view the ACT Government draft School Bus Policy here.

Merici College Vinnies Sleepout

Canberra’s cold temperatures did not favour Merici College Year 10, 11 and 12 students and teachers who rose to the challenge on Thursday 28 June for the annual Student Vinnies Sleepout.

The group slept outdoors in the New Quad to raise funds for Canberra’s homeless with the aim of promoting awareness within our Merici community of the issue of homelessness and for the students to experience a small part of the reality of homelessness.
