SEEKING PLACEMENT

A Former HSCS student, who is completing VCE VM through Norwood Secondary College and Swinburne, is looking for work placement in the plumbing trade. 

The course requirements are that one day a week, on a Thursday,  the student attends a work placement. We are reaching out to the Holy Spirit community on behalf of the family

WELCOME

We are pleased to welcome Kharlea to our SPS

(Speech Pathology for Schools).

Kharlea has experience working in several primary schools across Melbourne as well as in private practice. She knows the value of working collaboratively with parents and teachers and is passionate about aligning with the school’s best interests to achieve greater outcomes. 

 

Kharlea’s favourite thing about working in schools is enjoying learning about student’s passions and interests to guide her intervention approach to enable students to look forward to attending their sessions. She looks forward to working closely with Holy Spirit in 2023 and continuing the strong relationship SPS has with the school community.

 

She will initially be working with the prep classroom teachers and supporting the literacy needs of the students.
