As a strong advocate for public education, I am eager to work in close partnership with students, families, and staff to build a school culture where everyone thrives. Working in Sydney’s South-West as an English Teacher and Head Teacher Teaching and Learning has strengthened my conviction and belief for education that is inclusive, challenging and personalised, where every student is known, valued and cared for.”

Head Teacher English

“It is a real privilege to join the school community as the new Head Teacher of English. Much of my career has been spent teaching and leading in schools across Western Sydney as an English, History, and EAL/D teacher, as well as serving as Head Teacher of English, experiences that have reinforced my strong belief in inclusive, high-expectation classrooms where every student feels seen, valued, and capable of success. Literacy sits at the heart of my work, as I believe it opens doors both academically and personally for young people. I am excited to begin this new chapter and to work in partnership with students, families, and staff to foster a culture of learning in which every learner can thrive."
