Im writing this review on behalf of all the students who attended and graduated in recent years. More specifically those who attended the school from 2018 onwards. Most students who attended during this period i'm sure will recall the shift away from culture in the school with the abandonment of many school traditions. This abandonment of traditions marks the beginning of Marist Eastwood becoming an ATAR factory. As i'm sure ATAR is the biggest selling point for parents to send their children to the College, the school shifted care from a mix of education and student life to pure education.While i know this may sound great after all that is why we attended school. Marist College Eastwood in recent years took this to an extreme. Taking away the post HSC awards ceremony from the students. I know many students who worked tirelessly in their HSC years to achieve dux, and dreamt of reading out their speech to all the students, parents and teachers at the awards ceremony to only have it stripped from them. In addition the high number of students excited to receive their awards for receiving a band 6 for all their hard work, not even being allowed to dress up and return to the college to see and thank all of their old teachers. While this is just one example that I have provided there are countless traditions that were stripped away I just find this to be the one that affected many students the most.

Forever mirin. We miss you Az

I am NOT gen z. I AM GEN ZYZZ!!! REJECT MODERNITY EMBRACE MASCULINITY!

Solid facilities and teachers. Though staff may have changed. The main issues come about from the schools connection to Catholism. Too often we were taken out of class unexpectedly to perform montonous tasks in the church next door. Time would be spent doing choire over education. Teachers would pressure and harass students of opposing faith. I have a vivid memory of a muslim boy who said it was against his religion to take part in prayer at the church, yet was forced to do the same as the others. Teachers would commonly spout information that was outright false such as 'video games and movies are linked to real world violence'.Evolution was taught in science class, but I don't believe our teacher really took it seriously. It has all the pitfalls of a religious boys only school. Rather than focusing on education theres too much focus put on arbrituary outdated rules. The school was much more focused on protecting their public image above all. Students were oftened punished for things that took place outside of school in their personal time. If your hair was a centimeter too long they would drag you to the hairdresser. Teachers would laugh and jest about these things but they all seem kind of innapropriate when the main purpose of schooling should be education.The positives were that the facilities are just better than most public schools and the teachers for the most part were of higher quality and more engaged with their students.Teachers took less of a theory approach and lessons were hands on and more engaging and fun.
