 Steve DIMOPOULOS (Oakleigh – Minister for Tourism, Sport and Major Events, Minister for Creative Industries) (09:42): A few weeks ago Mount Waverley Heights Primary School graduated as Australia’s first IT Beacon school. This marked a groundbreaking partnership between Mount Waverley Heights Primary and tech companies like Datacom, Google and HP. Students were provided with cutting-edge technology and opportunities for engagement with the tech industry, enabling real-life learning beyond the classroom. I wish to pay tribute to principal Sharon Reiss-Stone for her leadership in pioneering this program at Mount Waverley Heights Primary, the school staff, the teachers, the parents and the sponsors.
