Introducing our SAC members...
Hi. I'm John and my wife, Brooke and I proudly have Emiliana (Gr3) and Chiara (Prep) at St Luke's. I joined the SAC to learn about all the different aspects that make up our school and help build connections between St Lukes and the school's families. I hope to see the school grow and continue to foster an inclusive and safe community for all students to learn and develop.
Hi, I’m Nader. My wife Elise and I have three daughters at St Luke’s: Estelle in 1/2 Coral, Alexandra in 3/4 Sage, and Georgia in 5/6 Ochre, who is one of the school captains this year. We are a very active family and enjoy spending time at the beach, water skiing, camping and riding bikes together. Elise and I are both pharmacists, and while the girls and I support the Hawks, we try not to hold it against Elise for being a Pies supporter.
I joined the School Advisory Council because our family cares deeply about the school and the community around it. I wanted to play a small part in supporting the school and contributing to the conversations that help guide its future. We believe very strongly in a Catholic education and the values and skills it teaches our children and hope that it brings
My hope for St Luke the Evangelist Primary School is that it continues to grow as a strong and welcoming community where students feel supported, families feel connected, and every child has the opportunity to learn and thrive.
REMINDER- This is your last chance...
