Is the Minister aware that country and decentralized industries, particularly those in the engineering field, are having great difficulty in remaining viable owing to freight rates on steel? Does the Minister realize that the recent 7 per cent increase in freight rates means an increase of 14 per cent to those industries which have to cover both inwards and outwards freight? Will the Minister confer with the appropriate Minister in another place with the object of exempting or relieving decentralized industry from the recent increase? The Hon. D. P. LANDA: I am familiar with the fact that certain country and decentralized industries are having difficulties.

Assessor's Summary of Significance: Old Government House and the Government Domain (also known as the Governor’s Domain) at Parramatta Park are primary sites associated with the foundation of British colonial settlement and provide a tangible link to Australia's colonial development of 1788. Convicts built many of the structures in the place and were the labour force which operated the farming and other enterprises that occurred there. The house itself and the surrounding historic elements such as the bathhouse, carriageways and gatehouses, and the remains of Governor Brisbane’s observatory, all reflect the establishment of agricultural production, the administration of the colony, the administration of the convict system in Australia, the commencement of town planning, and the site of some of Australia’s earliest astronomical and botanical endeavours.

  • AMSSA Newsletter
    Australasian Mercy Secondary School Association Fostering Mercy Spirituality and Ethos NEWSLETTER MARCH 2016 HOME ABOUT RESOURCES OUR SCHOOLS NEWS CONTACTS AMSSA Report The AMSSA Executive met on Saturday 20 February in Melbourne to develop an action plan for the Association’s work next two years. It was a very productive meeting. We spent some time mapping the AMSSA landscape including identifying the governance structures and the heritage of member schools. With the latter we focused on whether schools had one of more congregational heritages. What became clear from our mapping exercise was that about 33% of member schools are owned directly or through a corporate structure by the Sisters of Mercy. Another 14% are formally aliated with a Mercy Network such as the Mercy 5 or MEL. A further 30% are not formally aliated but have single heritage in Mercy. The remainder of schools have more than one heritage usually because they have been formed through amalgamation of two or more schools. This information together with feedback from the survey conducted by our Executive Ocer Kitty Guerin at the end of last year assisted the Executive to shape their work over the next two years. We wanted to identify what we could oer that was not available to those with close Mercy connections and further what services we were placed to oer because of the breadth of our network. The Executive conrmed two major areas for 2016/2017 Continuing the program of sta and student conferences. AMSSA is able to provide this service to schools because of the size of the membership.

    OLMsCene Semester 1, 2019 From the Principal Celebrating 130 years of OLMC This is a very significant year for both the Parramatta Sisters of Mercy and for the community of Our Lady of Mercy College Parramatta as we come together to celebrate our 130th anniversary. In December 1888 our pioneering Sisters, led by Mother Mary Clare Dunphy, arrived on the shores of Sydney from Callan, Ireland and ventured out to Parramatta by train to create a new congregation to assist the sick, the infirmed, the marginalised, the women in the asylums and to begin a ministry of education. We can be truly thankful for their courage, commitment to their faith, and their Irish tenacity which helped to create a wonderful legacy for our community. I believe it is also important to acknowledge the past Principals of the College who provided such wonderful inspiration and guidance over the past 130 years. and the College have commissioned the It is fitting also in our 130th year to Principals of the College creation of a bronze sculpture of Catherine acknowledge the dedication and service of McAuley by Gael O’Leary that will be not only the pioneering Sisters but the many Sister Alacquoe Kavanagh 1889-1908 placed under the Walnut Tree, behind the women who joined the Sisters of Mercy Sister Frances Kearney 1909-1933 Mother Mary Clare Dunphy Chapel.

  • Courageous Advocates. Limitless Possibilities
    COURAGEOUS ADVOCATES. LIMITLESS POSSIBILITIES. A Mercy Education is committed to excellence and enables every student to achieve her potential by developing her unique gifts and talents. OUR MISSION A Catholic Independent Girls’ School Our Lady of Mercy College Parramatta is a leading Catholic independent girls’ school founded on the Mercy charism. As a welcoming community, we value the pursuit of excellence and the development of each individual as a learner, leader and teacher. The College’s founding Sisters arrived in Parramatta from Callan, Ireland in 1888, determined to provide young women with new opportunities, including the chance for further education. The Sisters worked tirelessly to establish the foundations for what has become a leading independent school in the heart of Western Sydney. OLMC Parramatta is one of the oldest Catholic girls’ schools in NSW. From its establishment in 1889 until 2003, only seven women held the position of College Principal, all of whom were Sisters of Mercy. This continuity in vision over the years saw a treasured legacy established, including an unwavering commitment to social justice. Our vision is to provide a contemporary Mercy Education that empowers young women to lead with courage and act justly, making a difference in whatever sphere of life they choose to move, in the spirit of the Sisters of Mercy Foundress, Venerable Catherine McAuley. Empowering young women to make a difference. TRANSFORMING TRADITION Forever Anchored in Mercy As a community, we are true to the Mercy tradition and our Mercy Values. We are committed to carrying on the vision of Venerable Catherine McAuley and the Sisters of Mercy, carving new paths for this strong charism into the future.
