Parent Engagement

School Advisory Council

Each week you will find a brief bio on School Council members.

This week: Carly Avery

About Me:

I have had the privilege of working at St. Joseph’s for the last five years. Prior to this I have worked in London, Melbourne, Darwin and North East Victoria. These roles have included teaching, leadership roles and working in the Catholic Education Office.

 

Why I am on/ value the School Advisory Council:

I hold high value for the work that our School Advisory Council does. The mix of backgrounds that the Council brings to the table adds value to our processes as a staff. Underpinning the work we do is the sense of what is best for our students and our parents and staff. They are a great sounding board for a range of topics and assist in future planning such as Master Planning. 

 

What do you love about St. Joe’s:

I love, and feel very fortunate to be a part of this community. The sense of partnership from all cannot be understated. Whenever I do a tour for prospective parents I talk about what lovely students we have here, something I have been aware of since my first day. This comes from our families that install strong values and are lived by staff and parents also.
