Merici College Green Tip #34: Have you got used makeup packaging, toothbrushes and paste tubes?

Reducing waste is an important sustainability promoting action.  

This Greentip is a reminder that your used oral care products can still be dropped off at Student Services in the boxes provided to be recycled by Terracycle.

Toothpaste tubes and caps, toothbrushes, interdental brushes, and floss containers are all accepted.

As is your makeup packaging including shadow and powder trays, lip gloss tubes, concealer tubes and sticks, mascara tubes, and lotion dispensers.

Staff Achievement - Fabrice Boone completes GDMBR

Congratulations to Fabrice Boone who recently participated in the USA/Canada Great Divide Mountain Bike Ride (GDMBR) which is the most recognized and important off-pavement cycling route in the United States, if not the world. The route crisscrosses the Continental Divide from north to south starting in Banff, Alberta, Canada and finishing at the US/Mexico border in Antelope Wells, New Mexico. The ride is 4,400km, over 45,000m of climbing, mostly dirt roads, and participants are fully self sufficient.

IMPORTANT NEWS - YEAR 7 CAMP 1 POSTPONED DUE TO WEATHER

Dear Parents and Carers of Year 7 students,

As you may be aware, the ACT and Southern NSW region is part of a widespread weather warning issued by the Bureau of Meteorology for heavy rain, strong winds and flooding over the coming days. 

Following advice from the Tallong Campus and the risk and compliance team at Catholic Education, Camp One, which was scheduled to depart tomorrow for students in Ningil, Penola and Tullow Houses, has been postponed until later in the Term, with the rescheduled date to be advised in the coming days.

Counsellor's Corner - October is Mental Health Month

Welcome back to our students and families - I hope you are all feeling refreshed and ready to embark on the last leg of the 2022 school year!

Before we plough into what is sure to be a very busy and exciting term, I invite you to take a moment to reflect on the status of your wellbeing and to draw attention to any areas that could do with improvement.

Our wellbeing is the balance of our physical, mental, social, and emotional health. When we take care of these aspects of our lives, we build a positive sense of self and support our mental health.
