Co-curricular

OLMC Parramatta’s extensive co-curricular program has an activity for every Mercy Girl to enjoy, enriching her College life.

A busy life beyond the classroom enriches the student experience, building confidence and relationships. 

The College's Co-curricular Program facilitates the spirited culture of excellence which sets OLMC apart. Students are encouraged to join at least one of our co-curricular programs.

Co-curricular activities are held at the College at lunchtime. Others are held before or after school, both on and off site. These programs are run every Semester, giving students the opportunity to get involved in more programs throughout the College.
