Year 9

Congratulations to all the cast and crew on an extraordinary musical!  A very big thank you to all our talented students who were exceptional in their performances. What a wonderful showcase of the talents of our young women and example of the strength of the performing arts at Merici College.

On behalf of the entire cast, crew, and creative team, our heartfelt gratitude to all our community for your support and enthusiasm.

Sincere thanks to all our community for supporting our Gift of Life Walk this morning. We would like to extend our thanks to Josh and Ned and the Canberra FM crew for broadcasting live from Merici this morning and helping us raise awareness about organ and tissue donation.

Today we gather to celebrate the end of the academic calendar in a year of wonders and challenges. We also take this opportunity to recognise the successes, strength, resilience and passion exhibited by our young women in 2021. So much has been achieved, both academically and more broadly, by our students who have had the courage to dream big and to strive to reach for personal and community stars.
Congratulations!

Today our Year 7, 8 and 9 students were treated to a day of fun cultural activities and performances to allow students to appreciate the cultural diversity in our community and society.

In today’s special liturgy the student's encountered the Christmas Story from the Gospels, where the star of Bethlehem inspired the wise men from the East to travel to Jerusalem for the birth of Jesus. In the first reading, the students heard from the Book of Isaiah. Isaiah was a prophet or Messenger of God who lived before the time of Jesus, which is very significant. In this passage they heard about God’s servant who will be supported and loved by God, who will act through the Holy Spirit, who will not be boastful and who will bring justice to the entire world.

Congratulations to our Co-curricular Sport participants who received their sports awards today.
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to all our students and special thanks to our coaches for their dedication and support.
