Please enjoy the very best experience possible while browsing around the
Miya Kaadadjiny site
Miya Kaadadjiny is an integral part of the educational system at Girrawheen Senior High School and great care is taken to make sure that indigenous students in this school are adequately catered for in all areas of learning while also assuring a sense of belonging and sanctuary.
To further support these principles the promotion of parental involvement where-ever possible is also encourage and it has been shown by past studies that where parents take the time to be involved with their children, the educational outcomes that result are most impressive while also showing a substantial difference to regular attendance.
Our wishes for you are: May you learn something new everyday... May you enjoy the warmth and comfort of family and friends... May you be healthy, wealthy and wise... May you both give and receive an abundance of love... And may the sun always shine on your back...
