Welcome to Ms Danielle!

Hello! My name is Danielle Gracanin.

This is my first year at Clovelly Park Primary School and I am very excited about joining the school community. I am in R1 this year teaching Reception and Year 1.

I have many years of experience in teaching the early years which I particularly enjoy. 

I am focused on building positive and supportive relationships with the students and being apart of their learning journey.   I would like to say thank you to those of you that have already made me feel welcome.  I am looking forward to the year ahead.

Welcome to Karen Gillespie!  

Hello, my name is Karen Gillespie. I am super excited to be teaching at Clovelly Park Primary this year.  I have been teaching for over 35 years and still love what I do.  I have spent time in various sites across the state including rural schools, Aboriginal schools, Numeracy consultant with Aboriginal Education, as well as working overseas as a literacy consultant.  Whilst I have spent numerous years in leadership positions, I am super happy to be in the classroom this year.  I know my various experiences have helped shaped me into the educator I am today.

 I have 2 adult children, Amber and her husband live in Adelaide and my son Josh lives and works in Melbourne.  I have a beautiful Rhodesian, Hugo, who is getting well on in years. He is still great company when we take walks along the beach.
