The Church in the third millennium renews its educational passion to reach the peripheries that need to grow in humanity, in intelligence, in values, in habits, so that they can in turn go on and lead to other experiences that they do not know. Therefore, the walls must be demolished because “the greatest failure that an educator can face, is to educate ‘within the walls.’ Educating inside the walls: walls of a selective culture, walls of a culture of safety, walls of a social sector that is well-off and no longer moves forward” 5. Christian education is about bringing up young people, children with human values in all realities, and one of these realities is transcendence .

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.

You are all most welcome to our College and I hope that your time with us is both enjoyable and memorable. Such occasions bind us together as a larger part of the Marist family.

To all the sponsors and the many volunteers, thank you for your significant support. Finally, to each and every young Marist man who is competing at the Carnival, cherish the occasion. Take home with you not only sporting success, but more importantly the realisation that such occasions confirm you once again as a member of a much bigger more significant world-wide team – the Marist Family.

  • MSA Newsletter 4 | 19 March 2019 NOTICES and NEWS COMING UP
    A newsletter for Member Schools of Marist Schools Australia published fortnightly during term time From Dr Frank Malloy Dear Colleagues, As we mourn the victims of the massacre last Friday in Christchurch, the ubiquitous nature and capacity for influence of social media, poignantly arrests us as educators. Social media when used appropriately is a most natural and uplifting sharing of life and experience among family, friends, and colleagues. The live, uncensored, multi media nature of the platform and its incredible reach around the globe is compelling and powerful. It is a form of communication replete with good news and moments of joyous significance. However, as witnessed last Friday, social media can be used as a destructive tool for evil, inciting hatred and inflicting immense pain and suffering. Broadcasted murder of innocent, defenceless people praying to God, violently and indescribably shocks us. The massacre was the antithesis of love, nurture and care, God’s gifts to the unique nature of human kind. In this current global outpouring of grief, sympathy, questioning, and solidarity, what messages do we choose to amplify when listening and sharing with the young people in our care, many of whom are voracious users of social media? On Sunday at Saint Mary’s Cathedral in the presence of Muslim Leaders, Archbishop of Sydney Anthony Fisher OP, spoke to the alienated, resentful, and brutal mindset of the radicalised. Below is an excerpt from the full text, which is commended to you and can be found HERE. If it is real strength you want, you will find it in compassion and mercy, not hate and violence.
