Now, we have fully funded the final stage with $3.45 million in the Andrews Labor Government’s 2020 Budget! I just can’t wait to finish rebuilding this school and delivering the best possible outcomes for kids with disability.

10.01.2022 While it is now a cliche to say that this has been a year like no other, for Victorian students who are currently undertaking their VCE exams, that statement could not be more true. To all students who have today commenced their exam period, I wish you the best of luck. The class of 2020 has faced challenges that no other class has faced before, so remember to take the time to look after yourselves.

08.01.2022 A few months ago, I launched a Shop Local campaign in support of our local traders during the challenging lockdown period. We held a competition where we asked the community to nominate their favourite local shop and win one of 250 gift cards to spend at that business. The gift cards were jointly funded by me personally and by Bentleigh Traders Association. Again, I am encouraging our local community to support our traders. Let’s all shop local this Christmas. If you would like to support this campaign by using one of our special Christmas bags with the message ‘This Christmas, Shop Local’, just send us a direct message and we’ll post one out to you!
