Councillor Pye Augustine has completed a whirlwind school tour, visiting various schools across her division to witness first-hand the exciting milestones and leadership programs taking place.
During her visits, Councillor Augustine noted the incredible pride principals and deputy principals take in their schools. She also reminded the community that World Teachers’ Day is coming up on October 5th, encouraging residents to celebrate their favorite teachers on this special occasion.
One key highlight of her tour was celebrating two significant milestones. Ripley Valley State Secondary College is turning five this year, marking an impressive milestone for the fast-growing institution. On the other end of the spectrum, Redbank Plains State School is celebrating a remarkable 150 years. Councillor Augustine expressed her admiration for both schools, noting their unique achievements at different stages of their educational journeys.
In addition to school milestones, Councillor Augustine was invited to attend Redbank Plains State High School’s leadership program, where she will speak to students about what it takes to be a leader. She plans to share both her challenges and successes as a community leader, providing valuable insight for the future leaders of Ipswich.
She also attended the Ipswich Girls’ Grammar School speech night, and recently participated in long lunch events at both Ipswich Girls’ Grammar and St. Mary’s Primary in Ipswich. The events brought together past students, including former Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk and former opposition leader Deb Frecklington, to reflect on their school experiences and celebrate the impact of education on their personal and professional lives.
Councillor Augustine praised the schools for their fantastic work and looked forward to supporting their continued success.
