Positive Letters Home

We continue to celebrate the successes of our students at MHS. Our teachers use varying reward methods, including Merit Awards, Merry 6s and logging Positive Incidents on Sentral, to acknowledge our safe, respectful learners. This term 674 Positive Wellbeing Incidents were logged on Sentral. In addition to this, students who received 3 or more Positive Incidents received letters of recognition. The letters were generated by the Positive Behaviour for Learning Team and were mailed home. Parents and caregivers can also access these incidents using the Sentral Parent Portal.

GRIP Leadership

A full day leadership conference sponsored by Western Sydney University was really enjoyed by our Captains and Prefects.  They heard stories from other schools about successful fundraising, environmental and cultural change. They were challenged with ideas to grow their public speaking skills. During the day they had several opportunities to met leaders from other schools and share some of their experience of leadership.

The day in their words…

It was an amazing day to learn a range of leadership skills from leaders at other schools and strategies to work within a group cooperatively and effectively.  – Linda T

It was an exceptional program, it expanded our knowledge in regards to the different opportunities our school and leadership team can adapt to promote a positive school environment. – Zuhal R

The conference was effective and engaging in helping us recognise our flaws and strengths, as well as methods of how to further succeed individually as leaders as well as part of the whole team. – Eliza K

The conference gave us the chance to interact with many leaders, opening our eyes to a wide range of opportunities and leadership strategies. – Hanaan A.
