It was wonderful to see so many members of our community at our Festival on Saturday 1 June as one of the many faces who have moved through Merici’s doors over the last 60 years. As a future member of the Alumni, it is great to see the College’s connection with ex-students continue to grow.
On behalf of the staff and students of Merici College I would like to thank you for attending our festival and celebrating our 60th with us. I would like to extend the following thanks and appreciation to our entertainers today: Laura Pearce and members of the Dance Troupe;Clare Freeman and the Vocal Group
Jack Phemister and Susan Anderson and the Jazz Band; Tookie Capezio, Trish Young and the Hospitality team for the delicious catering; Eva Schroeder for organising the Photography Competition, and judging the entries with Virginia McLeod and Trish Young; Liz Igoe-Taylor for organising the Community Art activity. And, we extend our gratitude and appreciation to members of the 60th Anniversary Committee who have been instrumental in the planning and organisation of the Festival. We would also like to thank our photo comp prize sponsors Ted's Camera Store and Eva Schroeder Photography for their generous sponsorship.
We would like to thank our community members who enterred their photo/s in our photography competition. Our congratulations are extended to the following winners:
We hope all our guests enjoyed the afternoon and look forward to continuing our 60th celebrations at our #Merici60 Diamond Concert in August.
