Emotions are in overdrive in Neighbours this week. When Elly loses her job at Erinsborough High School, she looks to Chloe for support. But a comforting connection evolves into something more, leading Chloe to plant a kiss on her friend!
The drama picks up with recently appointed principal Jane (Annie Jones), who lays down new laws for her teachers.
Elly (Jodi Anasta) is caught sneaking off campus to meet boyfriend Mark (Scott McGregor) during lunch.
Having already gotten off on the wrong foot with a dress-code violation, the young teacher pushes Jane to her limits with this new bit of rule-breaking.
The principal tells Elly she has no option but to fire her.
