Meet the New Staff to Dana Street 2024
Claudine Lagier ~ Performing Arts Teacher Claudine is our new Performing Arts teacher. As well as the performing arts, Claudine has a background in sustainability and environmental education. She has taught at primary school, university and everything in between.
Zara Smith ~ PE Teacher
Zara has been teaching for over 16 years. She spent most of that time teaching at Ballarat Grammar in the Junior School. She has also taught in the Middle School at Ballarat Specialist School and has worked at a number of different places doing Casual Relief Teaching over the past couple of years. Zara has 2 young daughters and a French Bulldog who she absolutely adores. She is a mad Carlton supporter and loves to have fun with the students she teaches.
Rebecca (Bec) Wong ~ Japanese Teacher
I have been living and teaching in Japan for the past three and a half years in a city called Nagoya. I enjoy reading, watching anime, hanging out with my dog, exploring nature, archery, and making jewellery. I love encouraging students to be curious about the world around them and discover new passions and goals.
This year I am excited to be joining the team at DSPS as the Japanese teacher and look forward to sharing my experience of the language and culture with everyone.
