The Mackays Are On Their Way

Every child needs a hero and schools are full of them! This is a story about a principal duo that have gone above and beyond to make a difference in the lives of children at their school. Told from the perspective of an ex-student, from a refugee family, who grew up in a disadvantaged area. The values she learnt at school enabled her to lead a good and successful life. Inspired by her teachers, she decided to become a teacher and returned to serve alongside her beloved principals.

The author's story, and that of the school, is told in the 2022 documentary film entitled 'Giving Back: Students who Returned as Teachers.'
