July 31 was National Tree Day and a tree will be planted at Merici next week to celebrate Australia’s largest community tree-planting and nature care event.
Trees are an essential part of Australia's biodiversity.
We need urgently to plant more trees as part of a broader plan for climate action. Discontinuing land clearing is also essential.
So, can you plant a native tree or shrub that is naturally occurring in your area?
Among the many benefits, you may attract more bird visitors!

School Boards and Community Councils have an important role in the life of our schools. We value the knowledge, expertise and enthusiasm that parents and carers bring to these forums.
School governance is generating much discussion in Catholic school systems across Australia. This discussion stems in part from the changing expectations of parents, regulators, and governments about the role that parents, carers and members of school communities can and should play in the context of our schools, and the increasingly complex regulatory environment in which schools operate.
Year 11 and 12 Scholarships
Full Board Scholarships. These scholarships cover full tuition as the students have displayed outstanding academic achievement and community involvement in Years 7-10. The Full Board Scholarship cover these students' school and general fees for 2023/2024.

In every girl
We see world-changing power.
A force so unstoppable that no obstacle could ever tower
Strength from within that begins with a realisation Where belief, worth, love and discovery awaken.
To have dreams, find her voice, speak her mind, make a choice Control her own destiny, be the best version of herself she can be
The greatest gift she could ever give to herself is liberty.
That is true power; self-power, her power, girl power
In support of Plastic Free July and for every other month, another easy way to reduce your demand for plastic waste (see image).
This is already happening at Merici where you can buy your beverages from the Canteen in reusable crockery or bring your own cup.
Please consider not bringing off-site disposable, single use cups to campus.
