Breakfast regular Elida Brereton is retiring at the end of the year after nearly half a century of teaching. The Breakfast boys caught up with Elida on Tuesday, and on Friday were given these photos of Ms. Brereton 'mucking up' with her year 12 students.

Breakfast with Ross and John

Ross Stevenson and John Burns entertain listeners with their razor sharp wit and oddball humour every morning. And every day the best segments of their on-air - and sometimes off-air - program are published on 3AW.com.au.

Agree with Ellie, absolute legend. Every school needs a principal like Elida. Hope she will still be on AW if she does go. Brilliant in Summer Heights High too ... please do more Summer Heights too

What a legend! Don't go!!!!

We need to clone her for every school.
The education department cannot afford to lose her, but she should not be allowed to get bogged down in the politics Elida appears to have a natural talent and it should not be ruined.
Good on her.
