Mercy Award

Our current Mercy Award quality is for being a ‘Hardworker’.

The Sisters of Mercy were very hardworkers. They were dedicated to serving people who suffered from injustices related to poverty, sickness or lack of education. They continually endeavoured to respond to a range of local and global needs, establishing foundations around the world.

Some ways we can be hardworkers here at St Joseph's are:

always trying our personal best
focussing on our learning
following instructions
seeing a need and doing
