Heritage's Principal
Sonny Aiono
Thank you for taking the time to visit Heritage College online.
My name is Sonny Aiono, and I was appointed Principal of Heritage College at the beginning of 2017. As I look at our campuses at Officer and Narre Warren South, I am proud to be part of Heritage College and to see its continued growth and development – both on campus and within our local community. It is a privilege to serve in such a dynamic, student-focused school – our staff are equally proud of the achievements of our past and present students.
Heritage College nurtures a culture where teaching staff assist every student to achieve their highest potential and become lifelong learners. This area is a real focus for us, and as I look at the students’ academic achievement in years gone by, it is clear that students at Heritage College continue to improve. We see growth and achievement across all areas of our own school community, as well as student achievement recognised by others externally. Our school has a strong focus on service; it underpins practice in the classroom, activities throughout the year and community involvement of our senior students and alumni.
At Heritage College, the educational journey is more than just achievement and recognition academically. Our focus also rests on developing the whole student to become a positive, contributing member of the community. This means we work holistically on the spiritual, social and physical – as well as academic growth. We have a unique opportunity to help families and their children to become well-rounded and balanced individuals in our society; individuals that live with the understanding that life has a purpose and a positive hope for the future. A significant part of our values system is introducing students to Jesus Christ to become His disciples to our community: this is our greatest honour at Heritage College. I have the best job in the world being part of that!
We look forward to partnering with you on your child’s educational journey.
God bless,
