A fabulous night of fond farewells and celebrating the year that was.
Some poignant messages from the night:

“Wellbeing matters! We owe it to ourselves and our communities to model and mentor wellbeing.”

“The future really is in good hands with the solid, aspiring leaders we have emerging”

“Promote the amazing things. Share the joy and reinforce it!”

Did you know about the wellbeing check-ins for school leaders?

Appointments have been extended and are now available until Sunday 28 November (inclusive).

To schedule your wellbeing check-in please contact EASA on 8941 1752 and quote Reference Number 55140.

As part of the department’s COVID-19 wellbeing plan, principals and assistant principals can opt-in to participate in a confidential 30-minute wellbeing check-in call with an EASA clinician.
Wellbeing check-ins are designed to provide school leaders with a proactive opportunity to have a chat about anything that may be weighing on their mind and discuss practical self-care strategies.

The NTPA Exec team have been working with the Principal Wellbeing Action Project team to identify some quick actions that will have an immediate impact for all members.

We encourage you to reach out and utilise this service.
