Dismiss Normal text size Advertisement The school leaders of Glen Eira College have long had a private mantra: “Are we there yet, do we have their trust?” Born out of a troubled period more than 10 years ago when student enrolments at the government school in Caulfield East had shrivelled to fewer than 300, the mantra symbolised staff efforts to win back community confidence in the school.
