Minister's Award for Teaching Excellence

Award presentation

Congratulations to our very own Mr Nick Tsaccounis who received a 2024 Minister's Award for Teaching Excellence. There were many high-quality nominations and receiving this award is a significant achievement.

The 2024 Public Education Awards were announced in a ceremony on Monday 5 August at Sydney Town Hall.

Mr Tsaccounis was presented on-stage with his framed certificate by the Deputy Premier and Minister for Education and Early Learning, Prue Car MP. It was a great night for Mr Tsaccounis, his family and the school.

As a school, we congratulated Mr Tsaccounis at our morning assembly. Addressing the assembly, Mr Tsaccounis expressed his gratitude for the Executive's and the Industrial Arts Faculty's support, but saved his final thanks for our wonderful student and our school. He said he appreciates the warmth and kindness of the people who make up Heathcote High.

The award is most deserved and we are the very fortunate ones to have Mr Tsaccounis at our school.
