2023 Annual Report to the Community
Our College values are integral to our theme for this year, Communitas. We are a faithful,principled, and hope-filled community. Our symbol for 2023 pointed to the collaborative and relational nature of this concept: we have gathered together, in all our wonderful diversity,to face into each other as one community. Whenever we have gathered this year, we explored the powerful African philosophy that emphasises the importance of community, Ubuntu. It essentially means “I am because we are”. We have achieved so much as a community this year. We have aspired to live our Catholic values in community through many initiatives. For example, we have expanded the CYSMA program and Angela’s Angels. Our staff have worked collaboratively to build capacity and leadership in order to ensure that we are continually improving and seeking excellence in all that we do. Our extended Merici family have continued to be active in support of all our young women endeavour to do, be it through the College Board, sport, clubs and major productions such as Alice in Wonderland. We were especially proud to launch our Reconciliation Action Plan for Merici College in 2023.
