Year 7 Term 4

Welcome to the final week of assessments for students. It has been a busy, fast-paced year. On Friday 28 November. a pupil-free day, teachers are finalising results and writing reports.

Mercy In Action Day

Sadly, we have to report that the Mercy in Action day planned for next Wednesday, 3 December, has had to be cancelled due to the College being closed on that day for the funeral of Monsignor Frank Marriott.

Donations for Foodshare - Term 4 Fundraising supporting our local community

This term, we’re teaming up with Bendigo Foodshare to support our local community through a Food Drive. We’re asking students to donate non-perishable pantry items whenever you can. Every item counts. Let’s live our Mercy values and help those in need together.

Drop off points: General Office at Coolock and Library at St Mary’s.

Ready to Learn

One of our favourite photos of the year is the one above, which was taken at 9:05am, in Week 7 of Term 4. This is because our Year 7 students are still 'Ready to Learn', despite how close they are to the summer holiday break. There is excitement on their faces as they begin a new day full of possibilities. They are relaxed and happy with our staff, including Ms Hannah Lewis.

Year 7 English and Humanities

Although we are nearing the end of this school year, it has been pleasing to see our Year 7 students engage in their ‘Ride Like a Girl’ assessment tasks and storyboards, and Year 7 Humanities students completing Business and Economics tests.
