HEAD GIRL NIAMH AITKEN

I AM VERY PRIVILEGED TO

have been selected as Head Girl for Villa Maria College for 2022. I started at Villa in Year 7 and I have enjoyed my journey so far.

Villa has provided me with so many opportunities ranging from academics to cultural activities and much more. By making the most of these opportunities, I have created special memories and gained friendships that I will treasure for years to come.

While we were hoping that

Covid restrictions would be lifted this year, we will continue to adapt and find innovative ways to remain connected. I want to label 2022 as

‘the year of resilience’. My goal is to help each Villa student to stay positive and motivated through these unprecedented times. I also challenge myself to reinvent school activities so that they can go ahead safely under the Covid Protection Framework.

One of my favourite things about Villa is our special character, and the Mercy charism that is at the heart of our college. Our Catholic faith creates a strong sense of belonging amongst the students, and we actively seek ways to be of service to the community.

I am thankful I have been entrusted with this role and will strive to ensure Villa Maria College remains a positive and happy place to be.

‘We actively seek ways to be of service to the community.’
