Year 10 students joined together for a pastoral care morning on Friday, 20th September.
Year 10 students had the opportunity to hear about the importance of courage, one of the school’s Mercy values, at the Year 10 Pastoral Care morning on Friday, 20th September.
The morning was led by Mr Chris Doyle, from Karis Ministries, and looked at how courage can impact decision making and ultimately our lives for the better. Students were challenged to be courageous when making decisions about their learning and social behaviours and to stand up for their values, even if it means going against friends.
There were opportunities to sing, dance and engage joyfully in the session. Mr Doyle also reminded the students that the world is a beautiful place and God wishes us to be joyful and to show love to each other.

CLASS OF 2024 🥰 The Year 12 students were presented with a graduation gift from the school at the Year 12 final assembly on Wednesday, 25th September 2024. Each Year 12 student was presented with a bracelet. This bracelet was designed by members of staff as part of the Mercy 5 Staff Formation Project. The bracelets recognise the Irish heritage of our patroness Venerable Catherine McAuley as each bracelet is engraved with ‘trocaire’, the Irish word for Mercy. Ms Banks, Director of Catholic Identity and Mission, told the students gathered at the assembly, “As the Year 12 graduates wear their bracelets may they remember the words from our school hymn, The Circle of Mercy - ‘That the Circle of Mercy is timeless’. May they journey through life living out the mercy values and continue to strive for higher things”.
