The Aviso
Welcome to the third edition of The Aviso - a place for the MGC community to showcase their literary and artistic works, and have their voice heard within our community. During the unprecedented times in which we have found ourselves, creativity has found new importance. In a world so uncertain for all of us, the act of creation has become a vessel for solidarity, commonality and self-expression. Thanks to the Internet, the transmission and showcase of our creative endeavours has the potential to reach beyond the bounds of geographical space and time. It is imperative that during times such as these, we galvanise and learn from each other through the sharing of our thoughts and creations.

"Beach" by Meera Datt, 7R1
I watch the gulls fly onto the shore
Hear the waves crash and roar
I drink the salty coastline breeze
And feel the sand against my feet
Broken glass shimmers and gleams
The lull of the ocean makes me serene
I wish I could stay here forever and ever
Nothing could possibly be any better
I frolic along, looking for shells
Some are plain, some shine like bells
I suddenly find one that catches my eye
Oh, it’s just a crab scuttling by.
I rush to the ocean to take a dip.
And catch the waves as they rip.
My seaside trip has come to an end
But now the beach is my best friend.
