MRC students raise funds
MERCY Regional College students and staff have thrown their support behind the Do It For Dolly Day campaign.
A fundraiser for Do It For Dolly Day was held which saw biscuits and wrist bands for sale.
More than $200 was raised for the cause across both campuses.
Mercy Regional College assistant principal - wellbeing and engagement Emily Stephens was impressed with the student participation.
“It was wonderful to see so many students support the fundraiser by purchasing biscuits and wrist bands,” she said.
“The blue nail polish also proved popular, and was a great way to visually spread the message about being kind to one another.
“At Mercy, we are committed to ensuring that every student has a voice and the opportunity to learn in a safe and caring environment.
“Do It For Dolly Day is a reminder of how important it is to show respect and empathy as you never know what someone is going through.”
Do It For Dolly Day is held in May each year, continuing the conversation and raising funds to end bullying.
