A huge congratulations to all students and families for the effort, support and dedication that you have put into 2022.
Student Health and Wellbeing is one of the priorities of the school for 2022. We will continue to develop and enhance this area of the school throughout 2023.

WHERE SAFETY BEGINS – NORTHERN LEGAL COMMUNITY SERVICES
Greenvale Secondary College was nominated by Northern Legal Community Service to pilot their new program Where Safety Begins. Twelve year 7 students were selected by Student Services to take part. Through art, games and group hang outs, students learnt about building resilience, support and connection.
