Guided by the Mercy values of Compassion, Excellence, Hospitality, and Justice, we are dedicated to fostering a supportive community where each student is encouraged to be inquisitive, courageous, and persistent. We celebrate the unique gifts of every student, nurturing their growth and development.

Our student-centered wellbeing program supports students both at school and at home, with tailored programs for each year level that address their developmental needs. We focus on building strong relationships and promoting restorative conversations that help cultivate reflective and empathetic young people.

Our academic programs emphasize the essential 21st-century skills of critical and creative thinking, communication, collaboration, personal and social development, and ICT. We aim to create a sense of belonging, helping each student learn and grow in a caring environment.

As our students progress, they graduate as confident, self-aware individuals, equipped with the knowledge and skills to succeed in their future endeavors and contribute positively to society. At Mercy College, we empower our young people to become compassionate leaders and change makers in the world.
