From the Principal
Welcome to Spring! It seems so appropriate that in this season of renewal we will, next week, celebrate our 135th Mercy Day. This is a very special occasion and students and staff have been busy preparing for this wonderful day and I know how much everyone is looking forward to a great celebration day. I hope our students enjoy all what is planned for this special celebration and support their peers and teachers by participating on the day.
