Jessica McCarthy
Jessica McCarthy from St Patrick’s College, Campbelltown, commenced a Bachelor of Education (Primary) at the Strathfield Campus in the inaugural Early Achievers’ Program in 2009. The 18-year-old helped organise McHappy Days at her local McDonalds and worked at a school for disabled children.“The Early Achievers’ Program is a really great opportunity and relieved some of the pressure I felt about getting into university and my Higher School Certificate,” she said. “It was nice to know that marks aren’t the only thing that this University was looking for in students.”
Jessica said it had always been her goal to become a primary school teacher. “I chose ACU because of its reputation as the best facility for education,” she said.
