I definitely felt this unity and strong sense of community last Thursday evening
at the Family Mass and my commissioning. A number of people commented
on the supportive atmosphere and the fact that everyone who attended wanted
to be there. I thank all students, family members and staff who attended. It
was a wonderful opportunity to pray together as a community and to connect
with the Mercy sisters who were able to be with us. We were fortunate to also
have Mrs Mary Retel, a Director with the Mercy Education Limited Board
present at the Mass. Our challenge as a College community is to come
together when possible to worship and to recognise that it is an important part
of our faith journey. I am thankful to the P & F for providing the food on the
evening and encouraging people to gather in Catherine’s Garden after Mass.

As a College educating young women it was very special to attend the
International Women’s Day Breakfast held on Monday in the Hall. We were
fortunate to hear from two former Mercedes students. The Honourable Liza
Harvey, MLA, Minister for Police, Road Safety, Training and Workforce
Development and Women’s Interests spoke about significant women who have
made a difference to the world and the need to continue to advocate for
women’s rights in countries where they are still marginalised. The importance
of a good education was also emphasised. The second speaker was Steph
Audino, WA Fashion Designer, who recently featured her classic romanticism
label on an international runway at the New York Fashion Week. Steph spoke
of the many challenges she has faced starting her fashion business and the
importance of family and a positive approach to life. The breakfast finished
with a power-point presentation of former students and their achievements. It
was inspirational to see the great influence so many young women have on the
community and to know that they were educated at Mercedes.
It is hard to believe that we are half way through Term 1. One of my favourite
experiences to date was attending the swimming carnival a few weeks ago and
seeing the joy expressed by the girls as they sang and danced throughout the
day. The students were so carefree and full of life.
It is very important to me that the girls are happy and well cared for at the
College. As I have morning tea with Year 12 students in small groups I have
Insight from Catherine McAuley:
‘The blessing of unity still dwells
among us – and oh what a blessing –
it should make all things else pass
into nothing…This is the true spirit of
Mercy – flowing on us.’

and Sisters of Mercy at this years International Women's Day Breakfast.

Project Compassion's 2015 theme,
"Food for Life", throws a spotlight on
global food issues, focusing on the ways
in which Caritas Australia is empowering
the world’s poorest people to
establish sustainable food sources for
life, that relieve them of the fear of
hunger and allow them to develop new,
improved income streams for a better
future.
been struck by their positive comments about being at the College and the
support they receive from staff and peers. It has been a very successful start
to the year.

Principal
In this season of Lent, Caritas
Australia’s Project Compassion appeal
provides us with an opportunity to take
action and bring compassion to
others. As a result of our action and
contribution more people will have hope
for a life without hunger. During each of
the six weeks of Lent, we meet the face
of Christ in families people from Fiji,
Niger, Nepal, Peru, Indonesia and
Australia. Their stories humble and
inspire us, and show how our
contributions to Project Compassion
help people build better lives for
themselves, their families and their
communities.

Faith and Mission
Faith and Mission - Ms Rosa Speranza
This year, in keeping with the spirit of Lent we are asking homerooms to collect a $5 donation from each student using the
homeroom donation boxes. We are not asking homerooms to conduct individual fundraising events. The exception to this will
be our year 7 cohort, as fundraising forms part of their Mercy Service Learning requirement. I would however ask Year 7
homeroom teachers to consider alternatives to cake stalls etc. You might like to do a fundraising activity that offers a service
such as shoe shining or car washing. You may like to set up a ‘refugee camp’ where students buy a bowl of rice for
lunch. Activities such as this also have the additional value of educating students about poverty.
At the end of Lent on Wednesday 1 April, we will be holding a single whole school fundraising event – “The Stomp” – with an
80’s theme. Last year this event alone made up our 2014 contribution of $5000. It would be nice to increase this amount for
2015, so we propose to once again seek a $5 donation to Caritas from each student and ask students to come to the event
with gold coins for the many games, competitions, lolly bag & juice box sales during The Stomp. Donations to Caritas for this
purpose can begin as soon as homeroom teachers wish to collect and record contributions.
In keeping with the 2015 Caritas theme of “Food for Life” students were given a challenge this week to collect 500 kilos of nonperishable food items and deposit at the St Joseph’s Tower. Ms Lendich and Ms Speranza were locked away in the Tower
and would not be released until the food had been deposited. It was great success with the student reaching 520 kilos by
11.30 am.
As we travel through Lent towards the Resurrection, may we, the Mercedes College Community, support Project Compassion
so that alongside Caritas Australia, MercyWorks and communities living in poverty, we can help to build a more humane world,
where all can live life to the full.
Pastoral Care News
Years 7/8 Learning Community
Year 7 - Mrs Dhana Pitman
The Year 7 students were involved in Enlightened Education last week. They took part in workshops designed around the
program The Butterfly Effect. The workshops included activities centred on reconnecting with ourselves and our core values
and beliefs, to help us remember just how truly special we are. We also explored managing time, organisation, relaxation and
the all important necessary skills to make safe, important decisions about friendships. Your daughters are to be commended
on their beautiful behaviour and willingness to participate in all the activities.
Please make note of two important dates coming up:
Thursday 19 March (6pm)-Information Evening. Please get RSVP forms back asap.
Tuesday 31 March (straight after school)- Year 7 Mercedes/Trinity Picnic at Mercedes. Letter will be going home shortly.
Year 9/10 Learning Community
Year 9 - Mrs Sherrin Adams
It was gratifying that so many parents attended the recent Youth Focus presentation; it was a great opportunity for you to hear
an excellent talk about the important topic of Mental Health. The girls responded very positively to their presentation, which I
hope has given them the skills to look after themselves and also not be afraid to ask for help if they feel the need for
assistance. It is very important that parents do talk to their daughters about the issues that were raised. Youth Focus has an
excellent website and I encourage parents who were not at the presentation to access this site.
In Pastoral Care we are continuing our Flourish activities – to tie in with our whole school approach to Positive Education.
The girls have received a letter this week concerning the two Reflection Days to be held in Week 8. It is important that signed
permission slips are returned by the due date, as catering must be finalised.

Congratulations to the many students who are managing to successfully combine their academic pursuits with involvement in
the many activities that are taking place at the College. The Year 9s certainly are being kept busy.
Yr 10 Reflection Day - Isobella Brun
On Thursday 26 and 27 February, the Year 10s were invited out on a two day reflection. Our group of nearly 170 students
were split in half and were sent to two different locations.
The first location for our reflection day was as Osborne Park. The second location was at Perth's Zoo in South Perth. On this
particular day we were privileged to hear from some very compassionate and dedicated volunteers who strive for a better life
within our community, whether it be for our people or our environment. Representatives from the Salvation Army and the
Catholic Aged Care Organisation shared their views on important social issues such homelessness and the way in which we
treat our elderly population. It's hard to believe that there are almost 10,000 people sleeping out on the streets of Australia
every night.
Alongside these organisations, we heard from a few of Perth Zoo's docents. These people give up their time to volunteer at
the zoo to look after some incredible animals. This experience taught us about volunteering and how we should go about
completing our Mercy Service Learning journals. It was a great success!
Year 11/12 Learning Community
Year 12 - Mrs Bernadette Dell
The Year group have been working through the first assessments in many subjects so stress levels are starting to
rise. Homeroom teachers have introduced some stress management techniques in recent Pastoral Care periods but it is also
worth revisiting some of the ideas from last year. The ANU run a free online program called Mood Gym that many people
have found helpful and the girls were introduced to the program last year. We also practised breathing techniques last
year. These can be revised through online sources such as www.helpguide.org.
We have had a number of important events over the last couple of weeks and many girls had the opportunity to show their
leadership skills and their generosity. At the rescheduled Opening Mass and Commissioning Ceremony, it was wonderful to
see our girls taking on so many roles that assisted in making the celebration a beautiful experience for the
congregation. During the week, Rachel McKenna and Ellie Narducci represented the College at a forum exploring careers for
women in the resources sector and Natasha Bengura and Imogen Brierley-Hay attended the International Women’s Day
breakfast. All these girls were wonderful ambassadors for the College and gained a great deal from listening to such inspiring
speakers.

Auditions for Sweet Charity, our 2015 musical will be held in week 7 on Monday 16 and Tuesday 17
March, 3.30-6.00pm in the OPAC. Auditions are open to girls in Year 7-11. Girls only need to attend
one day and must work around their commitments to other College events. They may not miss
sports training, music rehearsals or DramaDance rehearsals to audition. A singing callback audition
will be held on Friday 20 March.
Please note this is a musical. We are searching for girls who can act, dance and sing. Less
confident singers who are willing to sing in a chorus group are welcome to audition, but lead roles
are all characters who sing solos, and dance solos. As this is a musical, the expected standard of
singing and dance ability is very high.

be downloaded here.
Girls, please ensure you read the letter carefully. Only audition if you are available for all rehearsals
(listed in letter), including July school holiday rehearsals.

Choral Weekend
Thank you to all of the girls for their hard work during rehearsals at the Choral Weekend. It was a very busy (but rewarding)
two days, filled with lots of new music and lots of note learning! I think the girls came away having made new friends across all
year groups. Particular highlights were the mini-concert from the House Choirs on Saturday afternoon and the Mercedes/
Trinity Chorale rehearsals on Saturday evening. Thank you to the parents for assisting with meal preparation and to Mr Oliff,
Mr Waterhouse, Mrs Cocks, Mrs Knapp, Ms Lawson and the House Leaders for their help throughout the weekend – it would
not have been a success without your help!

of providing students with a disability equitable access to sporting and recreational opportunities. Students attend these
sporting events on a regular basis. We look forward to the Swimming Carnival in Claremont on Monday 30 March.

International Women’s Day Events IWD Breakfast Monday 9 March -
Natasha Bengura - (Year 12)
UN Women's National Committee hosted a Breakfast on Thursday 5 March and Imogen Brierley-Hay and I were fortunate to
attend. Panelists included Mele Maualaivao, the Country Programme Coordinator of the UN Women; Carmen Lawrence,
professorial fellow at the University of UWA and former Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for Women and Yasmin Abdel
Mageid, founder of Youth Beyond Borders. This group of exceptional women spoke loudly and proudly about the changes in
roles of women over time and addressed some of the negative issues still prominent in society, such as domestic abuse and
how to combat discrimination in the workforce.
The following day, Rachel McKenna and Ellie Narducci attended the CME Women in Resources Awards, which recognises
individuals and organisations working to build a world-class industry which provides attractive career opportunities and
enhances the recognition and participation of women in the resources sector. They enjoyed a lovely breakfast followed by a
seminar which featured inspiring stories of women who have great achievements in the resources industry. This event
provided fascinating insights into the careers that women can carve in an area that is still seen as a male-domain.
IT - Mr Paul Reid Director of Learning Technology.
Please ensure your daughter’s iPad is kept in a protective case.
A number of students are not keeping their iPad in a protective case and these have been noticed
as having cracked screens. It is essential that the case is kept on at all times and is one that offers
significant protection to the four corners of the iPad. Experience tells us that by investing in a
suitable cover may mean you will save yourself a lot of unnecessary frustration and money in the
instance of an unfortunate incident.
Congratulations IT Angels for 2015 At the beginning of the year, all students were invited to apply to become an IT Angel. Each
homeroom has an IT Angel to assist staff and colleagues in their use of IT in the classroom. In
addition to the twenty-five 2014 IT Angels who renominated, fifty new students applied. These are
students who felt they were confident in using technology and enjoyed helping others. In our
regular meetings, we will continue to discuss the role of being a good digital citizen and to share
ideas on solutions and strategies to help solve the problems in learning with technology. The
presentations to homerooms give the IT Angels a chance to learn more about the technology we

Notice of change to PFFWA Constitution
The Parents and Friends Federation of Western Australia is proposing a minor change to their Constitution to alter the number
of required general meetings each year from eight (8) to 4 (four). This change will be voted on at the Annual General Meeting
on Wednesday 27 May.
Rationale for change:
1. The ability to communicate with Councillors between face-to-face meetings has become increasingly easier and more
convenient
2. Councillors tend to be active on other committees within their school and community and one less meeting per term
makes it easier for them to contribute to their other commitments.
3. It assists both in time away from home and meeting the cost of travel for country-based Councillors
4. It still provides the ability to have more meetings should they be required
A detailed notice of the change can be accessed on our website, www.pff.wa.edu.au. Should you have any queries, please
contact Shelley Hill, PFFWA Executive Officer on 9271 5909 or [email protected]

DOMs Year 12 Dinner – Dean Davidson
A few of our Year 12 girls were spoilt recently when they attended the first
Dads and Year 12 Daughters dinner at the Pan Pacific Hotel on Saturday 28
February. The girls were treated to pre-dinner drinks (soft of course) in
Catherine’s Garden before making their way down to hotel, where they were
spoiled by the hotel staff.
The atmosphere amongst the girls and the Dads was great. At the end of the
night we (the girls and the Dads) all agreed that we would catch up in 12
months at the same place for a "Post Year 12 Dinner."
Mums only Annual Breakfast at Miss Mauds
In its second year, the mums only breakfast, initiated by the MOM Group was
very successful with over 40 mums attending. It was a lovely mix of year 7 –
12 mums who sat down to a lovely smorgasbord breakfast at Miss Mauds in
Perth on Sunday 8 March. Thank you to all those who attended and we
hope next year will grow in numbers. Thank you MOMs for another lovely
event.
Thank You to Parents

Family Mass P & F Sausage Sizzle - Thank you to Paul Jervis, Mal Harris, Agatha Manel, Marina Hayward, Louise Comiskey
& Marie Short for all their help in the setup, preparation, hosting and clean up last week with the Sausage Sizzle. It was a great
way to welcome new families to the school and get existing families together at a social event. Without the help and support
from parents, events like the sausage sizzle cannot take place. On behalf of the P & F and the College, thank you!
International Women’s Day Breakfast This year’s IWD Breakfast was a sellout! An event like this is threefold and we cannot go without acknowledging the parents
who assisted at this event. It was truly an amazing team effort! An event like this cannot take place or be successful without
the help, support and encouragement from the Mercedes College parents who generously give up their time to assist.
Sunday Setup - Thank you to the parents who gave up their Sunday afternoon – Gabrielle and Frank Metcalf, Joanne
Tarleton and her daughter Medbh Flanagan (7.3), Michelle Alder, Marisa Tilli, Christina Bormolini, Wanda and Angelo Armenti
and Carolyn Skinner. Also, thank you to the wonderful Prefects, Lauren Brambilla, Ellie Narducci, Ruby Martin, Mary Harris,
Rachel McKenna, Caylee Wallis and Aimee Carbery who also came in on Sunday to assist.
Monday Morning - It was a very early start at 5.30am for some parents who came in to assist with the final setup before
guests arrived. Thank you to Paula Dunn, Veronica Pantos, Louise Comiskey, Annmarie Harris and Agatha Manel who
assisted with setup and hosting of the event.
Cleanup and Packup - What an amazing team! Many hands, laughter and company made this daunting task, fun and
“enjoyable” which was accomplished in record time!! Another huge thank you to Anne Cornish, Agatha Manel, Yoshiko
