This term our Year 8 Religious Education students have been investigating the legacy of Catherine McAuley and the Sisters of Mercy. The students have been learning about Catherine McAuley, the foundress of the Sisters of Mercy, and the beginnings of the order’s focus on the health and education of women. Students have also been researching the current work of the Sisters of Mercy in health and education in our world.
Students have worked in groups to research and present to the class on Mercy Works’ projects today. They have also had to imagine and create a new initiative of Mercy Works and the positive impact it will have on communities.
