MSHS End of Year Celebration 2024
On 10 December, the Melbourne School of Health Sciences (MSHS) gathered at the Ernie Cropley Pavilion to celebrate the end of another successful year. This was a chance to come together to reflect on the achievements of the year and recognise the outstanding contribution of our staff.
The presentation highlighted key achievements across all departments and the School over the course of the year, including recognition of new starters, promotions, and years of service. It also included announcing the recipients of the MSHS awards. This was followed by lunch and socialising with colleagues and friends.
Congratulations to the MSHS Excellence Award Winners!
