PRINCIPALS REPORT

Danielle Vaughan

Can you believe we are halfway through the year!? This edition of the Newsletter is representative of just how busy the term has been. Well done to our students for their motivation and working with their teachers to be the best version of themselves. I have seen a positive shift in behaviours around pride and respect for themselves, peers and the college environment. Thank you.

This happens a lot at Mount Eliza Secondary College, and being a mid-size college, we rely on it and are grateful for it. I would like to acknowledge all of the staff, parents, carers and students that go above and beyond to support the growth of our school for our students. In an era of ‘BUSY’ it is so easy to be caught up in the daily grind and before we know it, it’s June! It is sometimes a dangerous activity to name individuals, but I am going to name a few groups of people that I have been involved with this term. If I do forget someone, please email me to let me know so I can give them a SHOUT OUT next Newsletter.
