When the students of Hester Hornbrook Academy in Prahran have a problem, they turn to Wellbeing Team Leader, Stella. Run by the Melbourne City Mission, the Academy caters for young people for whom conventional schooling hasn’t worked, for myriad reasons. Some are young mums, many are aged in their twenties, and trying to gain qualifications to join the workforce. Stella is fiercely protective and proud of her charges, and her dedication, especially in this time of Covid 19, is remarkable.
