Welcome to 2024...
What a wonderful energy our community brought to the beginning of a new school year! I enjoyed watching our students and their families fill the campus yesterday, and I look forward to continuing this positive energy this Term.
This year will be a big one for Mercedes College as we celebrate 70 years of education, and the legacy of our founders with The Year of Mercy. This important anniversary year will see the Official Opening of our new Arts and Sports Precinct early in Term 2 - we will have more news about the Opening, and other exciting activities to celebrate this new addition to our campus.
We also have an exciting range of events planned to bring our community together, including our Food and Wine Fair on Thursday 22 February, 3.30pm to 7.30pm. This will be an evening of Paella, Pizza and Pinot, and everyone is welcome. Stay straight after the school bell, or join us when you can for an early dinner. We will send out more booking details early next week and I look forward to seeing you all there!
