I had the great pleasure last week of visiting the Wangaratta District Specialist School.  A shout out and thank you to their engaging students, to their energetic Principal, Chris Harvison, and the incredible staff.

When giving me a tour, the Principal noted to me that, what they lack in square metre space, they make up for in culture and they certainly deliver this in spades.

Wangaratta District Specialist School aims to develop their students to be as independent as possible within their own potential.  Preps were very proud to show me their writing skills, I spent some time relaxing with the middle year students, and met the VCAL cohort out in the yard.  To listen and talk to the team about how they assist each child on their own learning journey was truly inspiring and I look forward to seeing the rollout of $5.2 million in funding in updating their facilities.
