Chocolate for Mercy Day!

The Student Council distributed chocolate bars to the student body today in honour of Mercy Day.

The girls got to choose from boxes full of treats.

Mercy Day, celebrated on September 24th, is the anniversary of the opening of the first “House of Mercy” in 1827 in Dublin, Ireland. Catherine McAuley, founder of the Sisters of Mercy, devoted her life to the poor, sick and uneducated, and today we continue her legacy of caring and compassion in the name of Mercy.
