Thanks to you all, our wonderful community, that supported the MND fundraising. Incredible community response. Thanks to the teachers for taking it on and creating alot of interest and fun. I, for one, enjoyed getting to school early to see teachers getting iced for a great cause. It seemed to thrill and delight the school children and the parents!
Sarah Meachem, MPS Council President.
I have been on MPS Council since 2017 and this is my 4th year as President. The covid lock down years were full of distractions dealing with unprecedented challenges. That behind us, it's wonderful to look forward and focus on projects and programs that enable each student to thrive. Mum of 2 children, Olive graduated from MPS in 2021 and Will in his last year- time has flown. Professionally, my area of expertise is male reproduction as an academic research scientist and I also held numerous leadership roles across the health sector including pounding the political pavement in Canberra for 2 decades to improve healthcare. In my 'spare' time, I love to run and the kids and I love to hang out at our sanctuary for animals on the Mornington Peninsula.
