As we approach the start of Term 2, I hope the Easter holidays provide you the opportunity to pause, recharge and refocus.
The Easter message is one of resurrection and new beginnings, and offers us all a timely reminder of the hope we carry in our work each day. It’s the spirit of hope that guides us as we support young people to grow, learn and flourish.
There’s much to look forward to this term and beyond, and the Principals Forum on 8 May will be a great chance to reconnect and continue the conversation. I look forward to seeing you there in person as this will be our only Principals Forum this year. If you are unable to attend, please send a delegate as the Forum will not be live streamed.
I wish you and your loved ones a joyful, restful Easter, and a positive start to the term ahead.
