MITS April 22 Newsletter
MITS (Melbourne Indigenous Transition School) has shared their latest newsletter here. Edward Tudor, Executive Director, mentions that 'our Year 7 and alumni students are travelling home – by jet, charter flight, train, minibus and car – to their homes in the NT and Victoria for a very well-earned break with family on Country. It’s remarkable to reflect on the fact that this term has been the first full term of school in Victoria since 2019!'
