โœจ What a Week of Mercy! โœจ Last term, our school community came together to celebrate a truly amazing Week of Mercy. Each day began with a heartfelt Mercy prayer led by our inspiring Year 6 students, setting the tone for a week filled with compassion, reflection and joy. Our beautiful Mercy liturgy was a standout moment with a magical reflection brought to life by our talented choir and dance group. We were also blessed to have Srs Antoinette, Sally and Margaret join us for the liturgy and present the Mercy Awards, recognising students who live out the Mercy values in their everyday actions. The celebrations continued with our much-loved Mercy Cup, a fierce but friendly netball showdown between the teachers and students ๐Ÿ. This was all wrapped up with the incredible Mercy Markets, organised by Year 6. Through their creativity and generosity, they raised an amazing $2,403.10 for Mercy Works! ๐Ÿ’™ Take a look at the snaps capturing the joy, faith and spirit of the magical Mercy Week that was! ๐ŸŒฟโœจ
