McAuley Day
McAuley Day was held for the first time in 3 years and it was a great success. McAuley Day is an important event in our school calendar as it is celebrated as our Feast Day - acknowledging Catherine McAuley and our Mercy traditions and history. The main focus of the day is to raise money for Mercy Works and it is exciting to announce that over $4000 was raised by students and staff, which is the best result we have ever had.
The celebrations on the day included a liturgy and a reflection on Catherine McAuley, special House cakes, fundraising activities organised by each homeroom, a talent quest, and games. The day concluded with the traditional year 12 slide. In addition, Year 12 students dressed up as their childhood heroes and the staff dress-up theme was Flower Power!
Some of the homeroom activities included face-painting, Taco in a bag, water-balloon volleyball, putt-putt golf, passing the football, numerous food stalls and games, to name but a few.
Well done and thank you to Mrs Warby & Mr Montford and the House leaders of the College for the work done to make this day such a success.
