Holroyd High School

What’s happening in week 6

Ms Meilak — From Student to Staff!

“I loved attending Holroyd High School (1987–1992) because it gave me so many wonderful opportunities to learn, grow and discover what I was passionate about. One of the areas that really stood out to me was Visual Arts. I loved being creative, experimenting with different materials and techniques, and having the opportunity to express my ideas through art.

The Visual Arts program encouraged me to be imaginative and confident in my own ideas. It gave me the opportunity to explore different artists, develop my skills and appreciate art in a whole new way. These experiences stayed with me and helped shape my passion for Visual Arts, which eventually led me to become a Visual Arts teacher myself.

I have many happy memories of my high school years, and I am grateful for the teachers and opportunities that helped me become the person I am today.

These experiences have stayed with me throughout my career, and I have tried to bring those same opportunities to my students at Holroyd High School. I want my students to experience the same sense of achievement, creativity and confidence that I felt when I was at school.”

A selected group of Stage 5, Level 3 students from the IEC participated in the ABCN Interact Program over several weeks.

The program provided students with valuable opportunities to develop their understanding of workplace culture, professional expectations and a range of industry environments.

Through structured mentoring sessions with the program also supported students to build their confidence, broaden their knowledge of the world of work and develop aspirations for their future education, training and career pathways.

Opportunity in action!
