Conference

Ettalong Public School principal Mr Colin Wallis attended an Aboriginal Education Conference in Newcastle from June 1 to 4.

The four-day conference was attended by four other principals from the school's Local Management Group and was organised by the principal of Cherbourg State School in Queensland Mr Chris Sarra.

Mr Wallis said the program proved to make dramatic positive changes to student behaviour, attendance and learning outcomes at Mr Sarra's school.
