Year 7 marks the beginning of an exciting chapter filled with new opportunities and fresh discoveries. As Learner Agency Mentor for the cohort, I am delighted to begin this incredible journey alongside each and every student joining our vibrant learning community!
In this role, my primary focus is on the holistic development and well-being of our Year 7 students as they make the milestone transition from primary school to secondary school. To this end, it is my endeavour to create a supportive and nurturing educational environment where our young people have a genuine sense of belonging and academic self-confidence because they feel valued, heard, and connected.
This year, as part of our innovative Learner Agency Program, Year 7 students will delve into the foundational subject Inquire. Here, they'll develop and hone 21st-century skills in the areas of communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity whilst demonstrating our school's Universal Values which are underpinned by empathy, respect, and effort. In guiding the cohort through this program, my dedication rests in supporting each student to shape their unique learner identity and refine their strengths, passions, and aspirations. This program aims to foster both academic and personal growth, empowering students to seize learning opportunities, navigate success pathways, and realise their full potential throughout their educational journey here at Yeronga State High School and beyond.
I understand the significance of a strong support network in ensuring a seamless transition and schooling experience for our Year 7 students. In turn, I am whole-heartedly committed to maintaining consistent communication and collaboration with students, parents, and caregivers.
Let's unite and make Year 7 an exceptional experience!

Young adolescence is an extraordinary time of personal growth and as Year 8 Coordinator I provide support as well as challenge to engage and empower students in their learning and holistic development. I work collaboratively across the school and with students and families to foster a sense of belonging and community for the Year 8 cohort. I encourage and guide Year 8 students to embrace the many exciting opportunities and experiences at Yeronga SHS both in and out of the classroom. Full participation in school life enriches students and their enjoyment of school, inspires learning and social connection and enables students to flourish. The cultivation of these strong foundations during Junior Secondary education prepares students for the increased independence and rigour of the Middle and Senior schooling years.
Please don't hesitate to contact me or your child's teachers if you require information or support.
