Farewell Tim!
After spending time here doing his placement training, Tim was quickly employed as a Secondary Science teacher, specialising in Chemistry. He started fulltime in the middle of 2020 teaching Year 11 Chemistry and Year 7 and 8 Science. Tim stepped up this year to take on Year 8 Coordinator for the first 6 weeks of the year while Anthony Wroe was on long service leave.
Tim has had such a positive impact on both staff and students. He has a kind and caring nature that shines through his teaching and interactions with the students. Thank you Tim for your energy over the past four years. We wish you luck on your next journey!
