Year 7 Grandparents Day Celebration

Celebrating Grandparents Day at Merici College!

Tuesday 30 July was a heart-warming day as our Year 7 girls warmly welcomed their beloved grandparents to Merici College. It was an occasion filled with love, laughter, and appreciation for the special role grandparents play in our lives. The day began with a beautiful liturgy dedicated to celebrating the unique and cherished bond between grandparents and grandchildren. We honoured the wisdom, love, and guidance they generously share with us.

Merici College Green Tip #22 - Plastic Free July

Welcome back!

It is Plastic Free July.

This is a personal challenge that is part of a global effort dedicated to reducing single use plastic waste in homes, schools, workplaces, and communities.

Choose to refuse single use plastics, in July and year round.

Choose to refuse plastic straws, shopping bags, take away containers, cutlery, beverage containers, bag clips.

We can be proud our Merici canteen which does not sell plastic packaged items.

Merici College Green Tip #21 - Leaf Solution

Deciduous leaves are a beautiful part of autumn in Canberra.

However, they also get into the waterways and result in algal blooms that lead to slime, foul smelling water and no-swim orders.

The Leaf Collective is on a mission to solve this problem by turning Canberra's into a resource.

To be part of the solutions you can:

  • Use your green bin.
  • Compost.
  • Store the leaves.
  • Drop off at a leaf donation point.
  • Adopt a drain.
  • Track your leaves on the app.

Merici College Green Tip #19 - Talking about cups

Disposable cups are making their way to Merici.

It is estimated Australians use 1 billion disposable coffee cups each year.

An estimated up to 90 per cent of all disposable cups ended up in landfill, equating to around 60,000 kilograms of plastic waste per annum.

Here at Merici we are committed to sustainability promoting action.
