Leading to inspire others.

Communication with Assistant Principal, Llew Humphries: llewela.humphries@education.vic.gov.au
'If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.'
John Quincy Adams
USPS School Leaders-Vyom, Jasper, Isla and Judd
The Acknowledgement of Country which was read during our assembly this week was developed and written by our School Leaders. This acknowledgement was written following a conversation we had about the land we are on. The leaders discussed the importance of giving thanks to the indigenous people who have lived here over the past 70,000 years.
We acknowledge the Wurundjeri elders, past, present and emerging for sharing this land that we teach, connect and learn.
We continue to walk together to make a stronger future for this land we call home.
We greatly appreciate the elders for taking care of this amazing country.
School Wide Positive Behaviour for Learning school leaders
Congratulations to our four SWPBL school leaders: Finn, Olive, Bonnie and Jacob.

Congratulations to all students on being one of our leaders in 2025.
