Junior School

 Stephen Nelson, Head of Junior School

Reflections on Semester One

Semester One has been filled with meaningful learning, personal growth and many proud moments for our Junior School and Early Learning Centre students. From classroom achievements to co-curricular successes, it has been a rewarding first half of 2025.  I am especially proud of the compassion, gratitude, optimism, resilience and respect our students demonstrate each day. As we look forward to the well-deserved winter school holidays, I wish all in our Myrniong learning community a restful and rewarding three-week break.
