Yirara College welcomes new principal
Yirara College has appointed a new principal, Mr Wesley Meurant. With the utmost heartfelt thanks, we say farewell to Mr Chris England and send well wishes for his next journey in life.
Wesley comes from Brisbane, Queensland, with more than 20 years of experience in the Lutheran education system. He is a keen linguist with a deep interest in remote communities in the Northern Territory.
The Yirara community celebrated 50 years of education this year. The celebrations were kickstarted with the official installation of Wesley, conducted by Ingkaarta Basil Schild and supported by guests from across Australia. Previous and current staff, past and present students, family, friends and the college board members were in attendance to recognise and be a part of this special occasion.
We congratulate Wesley on his appointment and welcome him to the college community.
Philippians 4:13: ’I can do all this through him who gives me strength.’
Sam Ballard is the Executive Assistant to the Principal at Yirara College.
