Welcome to what we hope is our first edition of “Merici Shorts”, a publication of short fiction written by our students. This year has been, it’s been said a million times, “unprecedented”. We have become almost blaze about how unusual the year has been. Will it leave the world a changed place, and for the better? Only hindsight will give us the answer to that. Reading this work, I wonder how this year has effected or set the mood of the pieces. It’s an interesting, and perhaps dark, collection of work and I hope you enjoy it.

On sale at the Finance Office, $5.00 each.

Good evening and my heartfelt thanks and gratitude for your attendance tonight.

I consider EVERYONE who is here today and those who apologised or have met up with me prior to today to say goodbye as special guests on my journey in Canberra. To:

Our Year 7 Religious Education classes held a Christmas marketplace fundraiser for the St Vincent de Paul Christmas Appeal. During Period 2 and recess the students sold hand-made craft items and to raise money for St Vinnies. We would like to congratulate the students on the exceptional efforts this year.
