Brendan Kenna

Wendy LOVELL (Northern Victoria) (13:29): It gives me great pleasure to once again recognise and congratulate Brendan Kenna from the Wilmot Road Primary School in Shepparton, who has placed within the top 50 finalists for the 2023 Global Teacher Prize. Brendan is currently an assistant principal at Wilmot Road Primary School, where nearly 80 per cent of the students speak a language other than English at home. Last year Brendan was one of 12 teachers recognised as Australia’s most inspiring teachers in the 2022 Commonwealth Bank Teaching Awards. During his time working in education Brendan was also a finalist in the 2013 Victorian teacher of the year awards. With a longstanding history of accomplishment, Brendan is truly an inspiration for his colleagues and most importantly his students.
