High achievers return
OUR Lady of Mercy College (OLMC) in Parramatta welcomed back their 2011 HSC high
achievers at the first college assembly of 2012 to
acknowledge and celebrate their excellent results.
In the 2011 HSC, 61 girls achieved at least one
Band 6.
Three students, Lissandra Larobina, Emma Haig
and Chelsea Barton, achieved Band 6 (or equivalent) in at least 10 units and were HSC all round
achievers.
Particularly significant was that all three girls
were senior leaders at the college, and Lissandra
and Emma were college head girl and assistant
head girl.
Each of these students were fully involved in the
life of the college and their academic results have
been outstanding.
Emma Haig, with an Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank (ATAR) of 98.4 and former assistant
head girl said to be successful it was a good idea to
have a goal in mind.
‘‘The most important and fundamental key to
success is having something to work for such as a
particular ATAR score, or a personal goal,’’ she
said.
‘‘This becomes your reason to try your absolute
hardest to achieve it and will put you in good stead
for the entire year.’’
The most important success story for the
college’s 2011 HSC students is the large number
of students who achieved in the top two bands in
their subjects.
The college girls have a 30 per cent greater
chance of achieving in the top two bands than the
state average.
The state average includes all schools: Catholic,
independent and government.
On Thursday, March 8, the college will hold its
Open Day for 2012.
This is a great opportunity to see what education
the college has to offer.
Visitors can find details about the open day,
or register for it, by visiting the college website:
