Pallas Magazine Update: Welcome to Pallas!
Welcome to Pallas!
Each year, the Pallas Magazine captures the highlights of the school’s major events – academic and co-curricular – displayed through both photography and written accounts. The magazine also showcases student art, music, athletic achievement, as well as Connect Class photos for all Year levels. The theme of Pallas 2025 is The Pearl – which celebrates the growth, friendship, and dedication of Mac.Rob students, and is an invaluable record of the school year to be cherished.

Front Cover Competition.
The Pallas Front Cover Competition has officially opened for this year, seeking out Mac.Rob artists to showcase their unique skillsets and illustrate their voice and visions to the rest of our community. The Pearl is the theme which artists base their inspiration on to create pieces, drawing out feelings of beauty, contemplation and appreciation to reflect on their individualistic journeys and achievements in 2025. Don’t be afraid to display your artistic creativity and explore different styles and mediums – submit as many entries as you would like!
Submissions close: Friday, September 19th (Week 9, Term 3) @ 5:00pm
Photography Competition.
The Pallas Photography Competition is open! A new addition to Pallas, we are calling on all photography enthusiasts to enter. With a variety of photos you can submit, varying from food pics to compelling scenery, Pallas aims to delve into the creativity of Mac.Robbians and show us how you cherish your memories. We want to capture the growth of Mac.Rob for the Pallas Magazine’s 2025 value, and can’t wait for your participation!

Submit Vox Pops & Visual / Written Art.
There are always ways you, yes you (!!) can contribute to Pallas! Have you been particularly proud of any of your visual art this year? Or any of your written pieces? Do you want the school to know your name? Then make sure to send in your work to Pallas, and you’ll have a chance of being featured in the Magazine! Additionally, if the arts aren’t really your style, or you don’t have much time to offer, why not submit a short 1-2 sentence Vox Pop on anything that has happened this year? Share your thoughts on anything and everything about Mac.Rob, and see your thoughts in the Magazine!
Check Memo Mondays or the Pallas page of the Portfolio Portal for more info and submission links!
Interactive Pallas Archive.
All this talk about the 2025 Pallas might start bringing up some nostalgia… are you wondering what all the editions of Pallas may have looked like? Well, like we always say, the memories are yours to cherish! The Pallas team are proud to share an interactive digital version of the very first edition of Pallas ever published (May, 1928) for you to view. While the bust of Minerva might be familiar, we bet there’s plenty inside that will come as a surprise - including the school’s name!
