Achievers’ Club: Recognising Academic Excellence
This week, 148 girls from Years 8 – 12 gathered for Achievers’ Club lunches to celebrate and acknowledge their outstanding efforts in Semester 2, 2022.
The lunches celebrate students who embody our Mercy value of Excellence and have maintained impeccable academic standards. They are held at the completion of each semester.
Jennifer Oaten, Principal, and Simone Sawiris, Deputy Principal, Teaching & Learning, addressed the girls congratulating them on their academic excellence. Each member of the Achievers’ Club was then awarded a certificate.
Being in the Achievers’ Club encourages students to strive for Excellence and recognise the importance of consistent hard work and dedication.
By acknowledging and celebrating the academic success of these students, the Achievers’ Club reinforces the value of education and encourages a lifelong love of learning.
Again, congratulations to our top-achieving students for Semester 2, 2022. We look forward to seeing what this year holds for students in all areas of the College.

The average person’s attention span when using a digital device has plummeted from around two and a half minutes back in 2004 to just 47 seconds on average today – a dramatic 66% decrease over the past two decades.
