Last year our students captured the lockdown experience by taking photos of their world for the MLMC Photography Competition. This year the College is calling on all students to get creative and get involved in our 2021 MLMC Art Competition.

And it is not just about photography in 2021. Students can submit works in any medium —a drawing, a painting, sculpture, digital art, collage ... ANYTHING to do with this year’s theme ‘Our MLMC community’, to coincide with MLMC celebrating its 125th year. Catholic Education is also celebrating 200 years of education.

This year there are double the prizes on offer, donated by both the Visual Arts and Religious Education faculties, with JB HIFI vouchers up for grabs with awards for Junior (Year 7-9) and Senior (Year 10-12) students. Staff are also encouraged to participate.

There is plenty of time for students to create or plan their work as entries are due by Friday 10 September 2021 for display on Mercy Day (Friday 17 September). Works are to be no larger than A2 size for display. Each student entering a work will receive a College commendation.

There is so much beauty within our College community and we look forward to seeing MLMC through the eyes of our students and staff and also to celebrate MLMC’s history. For all inquiries and for the submission of entries please contact either myself or Mrs Ruth Warr.
