Note from the Editors​​

​​​​​

“I always knew this day would come.”   ​

And somehow, it has. It’s finally here. 

As Year 12 steps into the final stage of our high school education and then into university, gap years, careers, and everything in between, we find ourselves saying goodbye to the school that has been our home for 2, 4, 6, and even 8 years. It’s been a place where we grew, found ourselves, made memories, and became the people we are today. 

For us, The Mary Word has been a special part of that journey. It gave us a place to express ourselves, be creative, and share our voices while creating memories with our teachers, members, and friends, all of which we’ll continue to carry with us long after we leave these grounds. We are so grateful to everyone who has made The Mary Word what it is and allowed us to be part of it.

As we close this chapter, we wish our new Editors-in-Chief, Design Editor, Marketing Coordinator, and Editors the very best - we can’t wait to see where you take The Mary Word next. As we move forward, we hope we remember that one day, we might look back and realise these really were the good old days.

​

With love always,

The Mary Word Team
