Note from the Editors:

Welcome to the start of 2025! Whether it's the first or last time "First Day Back", or perhaps you have a few more to come, we all know that Term One is filled with exciting events. At The Mary Word, we are glad to be back, and even more excited to bring to you the first of this year's issues. 

​

Look through the articles, and you'll find "How To" guides for this year, including how to set yourself up for Year 11, a playlist, some fascinating reading on references to Classical literature in modern media, and so much more.

​

We hope you've had a good break and that the switch to waking up at 6:30 a.m. didn't hit you too hard. So, without further ado...

​

Welcome Back (Mary)!
