It 5.00pm struck me as a fairly selfish outlook to always put yourself and your nation first regardless of the needs of others. It raises deep Friday 9 August questions of what we prioritise as a nation, a school, a family, and O’Donoghue House Day as an individual. Such a message seems to lack a commitment in 5T Class Assembly, 2.15pm, Junior School Hall showing a concern for those most in need and lacking a generosity Bookings close for Marist Mothers’ and of spirit.

We want our boys to have a gentle heart, a forgiving heart and a heart that acts with Book Week justice. The underlying intent is to raise awareness of justice issues within the context of our commitment to a faith that does justice. Our commitment to the formation of young men is to Monday 12 August create opportunities to form social conscience and social awareness. We want our boys to be Year 7 Retreat Day (first group), Merici College able to ask questions about the world around them and perhaps dream about making the world Junior School - Author Visit, Trent ‘Maxi’ Maxwell a better place through the skills and experiences they gain here at the College.

Friday 23 August 5M Class Assembly, 2.15pm, Junior School Hall There is an old story of a statue of Jesus found in World War I France in the ruins of a shelled Monday 26 August Church. The statue’s arms had been blown off and some passing trooper had slung a sign in ASC Basketball English around the neck. It read, ‘I have no hands but yours.’ So simple a statement, but such a deep theology. No hands but yours is a far cry from ‘putting yourself or your country first.’ May St Marcellin continue to watch over our boys and their families.

    Marist College Canberra Year 11 and 12 Handbook 2020 1 Year 11 and 12 Handbook 2020 Marr Street PEARCE ACT 2607 Phone: 02 6298 7200 Fax: 02 6298 7224 Email: [email protected] Mr Matthew Hutchison Website: www.maristc.act.edu.au Headmaster 2 Dear Students The final two years of schooling are, for most, the most memorable and enjoyable time of your school journey. It is a time for leadership opportunities, a time to cement friendships that will support you way beyond your schools days and a time to explore your intellectual capacity and interests. Marist College Canberra provides broad learning options and pathways. This handbook has been designed to assist you and your parents with choosing subjects and in gaining an understanding of the ACT Year 12 Senior Secondary Certificate. I urge you to read through all sections carefully, and to consider the options available so that you can make choices suited to your particular needs. I implore you to base your decisions that match your interest, your ability and preferences reflected in your past ten years of schooling. Please choose wisely, according to what is best for you – not because of the teacher, or because of what your friends are choosing. It is a common mistake for boys to choose subjects, which they think, will help them gain entry into university rather than those that actually interest them, or those which they are capable of successfully completing. This usually results in boys not performing to the best of their ability. Seek the advice of your parents, teachers, the Career Advisor, and your House Dean.

  • Board of Senior Secondary Studies Annual Report 2009-2010
    Board of Senior Secondary Studies Annual Report 2009-2010 Overview The Board of Senior Secondary Studies (the Board) was established in 1991 and the Board of Senior Secondary Studies Act 1997 (the BSSS Act) was enacted in January 1998. The key functions of the Board are to: • provide students with Year 12 Certificates, Tertiary Entrance Statements and vocational certificates • maintain the credibility and acceptance of courses through a regular accreditation program • monitor and support the validity of assessment in years 11 and 12 • improve the comparability of standards across the Territory through moderation procedures • gain the widest possible recognition for the credentials awarded by the Board • service the information needs of the community. During 2009-10, the Board has continued to implement its strategic plan. Key initiatives have included a review of flexible learning and its implications for Board policy, the trialling of some alternative approaches in the peer review moderation process and a technical review of the ACT Scaling Test. The Board has ensured that the ACT has been actively involved in development of the senior years’ Australian Curriculum through participation in the writing process and at consultation workshops. The Board responded to the draft position paper on National Curriculum in the Senior Years and is preparing a response to the recently released draft courses in English, mathematics, science and history. The Board is monitoring the implications of national curriculum on its policies and processes, and will consider a timeframe for implementation, in the next reporting period. There was a significant change in the membership of the Board during 2009-10 as many of the appointments to the Board expired at the end of 2009.
