Great keynote with Barney Dalgarno, University of Canberra, at today’s conference. Empowering teachers through #leadershipagility & promoting #teacherresearch on practice. How do we effectively bridge teaching & theory meaningfully? Hear the discourse - engage in proximal experience!

Ready set go!! Despite the dodgy weather these keen riders are learning to ride! Just one of our fabulous partnerships to support our families. #NorthsideCommunityServices #GirlsOnBikes #BikeLibrary

Future Bright indeed. Really insightful evening with the expert panel from UC and William Shakespanderson

Attended the #futurebright panel at University of Canberra last night. Interesting and inspiring discussions around where to next? In a post-covid world, will the Arts, trans-disciplinary collaboration across industries and innovation in education make our futures brighter?

Connecting yesterday learning to today’s learning to tomorrow’s learning through #floorbooks at #margarethendryschool

The 2021 year 6 children have been through a #designprocess to #coevolve a learning space that is reflective of their academic, social and emotional leaning needs. #flatpack construction at its best!

George Couros Just diving into #innovateinsidethebox & already resonating with the notion of shifting semantics. At #MHS we consciously use the term #learners to empower our children while promoting eds to reconsider and re-imagine the role they play each day. #futureofed Kate Woods

In our welcome yarns, learning coaches share our digital platform, #SchoolTalk, with families. This is where we plan for learning & capture growth through meaningful evidence. Children use calendars to track their learning & can upload evidence too. #agency at the centre. #MHS

Coming together after our soft start to the year. What are the opportunities for connection and collaboration? How do we maximise time on site? Collaborative teams, collective efficacy & working towards a shared vision. #MHS #hendryhive #grow #connect #collaborate #love

In an innovative learning environment, the challenge is to maintain high impact environmental print in a way that can be used & moved between adaptable spaces. Floorbooks & anchor charts are key. Knowing explicit teaching can happen anywhere- not just at the front- also matters.

Today’s leadership meeting was led by our student ministers. They shared their proposed action plans under indiviudal portfolios to have impact across the school. Authentic decision making with student voice at the centre! #MHS #grow #connect #collaborate #love

Another exciting acknowledgement for our school. In our third year, we are truly grateful for all of the hard work that has gotten us to where we are today. Still lots to do, but our vision keeps us moving forward! #MHS #grow #connect #collaborate #love

MHS P&C 2021 Workshop. Growing a #Unitedleadership team with all stakeholders Maxine Galante

Day one with our 2022 team. Unpacking and exploring the vision: What does this mean for us at educators? What does this means for our community? #empoweredteams #schoolwithinaschool #MHS #choice #voice #hendryhive

On day 2, our team used a range of thinking routines to connect aspiration with practice. It was great to see teams collaborate over a range of provocations to develop a shared understanding of their community’s processes for 2022. It’s time for school within a school! #MHS

It’s a privilege and an honour to work with amazing people everyday to positively impact the lives of those around us, intentionally opening eyes to new ways of being.

Come and join us at one of the most progressive and innovative schools in Canberra. We need bold, committed people who love children and have a deep knowledge of the curriculum. jobs.act.gov.au/jobs/education…
