WEEKLY REFLECTION

On Monday I had the privilege of attending the GRIP Leadership Conference with our Student Leadership Team (School, Student Voice and House Captains). The conference was held at the Melbourne Exhibition Centre with an attendance of two and half thousand Primary School Leaders. The team were able to share ideas with like minded peers and emerging leaders across the state. The topics explored were; How Everybody Can Step Forard and Lead, The Sacrificie of a Student Leader, Stepping Forward with New Ideas and The Extra Steps – Doing the Things that Leaders Often Forget. I look forward to seeing the positive impact our 2024 Leaders have on our school and the legacy that they leave.
