Other Careers Event

Ex-student receives a Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM)

At the 2022 Opening School Mass, Principal Lucie Farrugia took the opportunity to formally congratulate Sister Barbara McDonough rsm on receiving an OAM on Australia Day.

A Parramatta Sister of Mercy and ex-student of OLMC, Sister Barbara was recognised for her service to education and to the church alongside over 1000 recipients across the country. This is an amazing and well-deserved honour for Sister Barbara McDonough who has so generously served our College community for many decades including by playing a pivotal role in our Alumnae Association. The College's Student Services centre, refurbished in 2012, was named after Sister Barabara McDonough.

HSC Celebration of Achievement

The College's HSC Celebration of Achievement Assembly was held on Tuesday 8 February. It was followed by Morning Tea in the Convent Garden. This was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate with the Class of 2021.

Despite going through a year like no other, the girls demonstrated resilience and determination, coming out the other side shining brightly.

Mercy Girls heard from ATAR Dux, Marta Abicic, who shared her own journey of her HSC experience. “You need to be kind to yourself and figure out what works because once you find your learning style, everything becomes a lot easier.”
