Admin Team

Colin Mountney (Business Manager/Team Leader)

Hello to the wonderful families and friends of South Melbourne Primary School. 

I’ve been part of the SMPS team since it started in 2018 and I absolutely love our school. I loved it so much that I switched roles last year from IT support to Business Manager. My job involves managing the school's finances, facilities, human resources, office team, and much more. 

Outside of work I love spending time with my wonderful family.

I cannot wait to get the 2024 school year started and I am excited to meet all our new families and to welcome back our current families. 

Kirsty Reynolds (Office Administrator)

Hello SMPS families!  

I’m Kirsty Reynolds and have been part of the SMPS Admin team for the past 3 years. I look after our Administration Office and all our new Enrolments, which means I get the privilege of meeting all our new families before they start at SMPS.  I also tend to first aid, help our FAF team with events, and generally do any other task that Mr Noel and the Leadership team need me to do!  

My husband Michael and I have three children, Lachie is 21, Tommy is 20 and Olivia is 18 so they keep us on our toes!  Outside of work I love to cook (and eat!), I enjoy reading and I play social netball. I live near the beach, so I also love taking long walks with friends. I’m very excited to be back at school to welcome our newest family additions and catch up with all our current students and families. 

Emma Meloni (Front Office)

Hi I’m Emma and I work at the reception at SMPS.

I look forward to seeing all our current families and getting to know all our new families in 2024! 

You’ll see me at the front desk assisting you with your everyday queries, supporting student attendance, sick bay, and if you don’t get the chance to see me at reception you will most likely hear me at the other end of the phone helping you wherever I can.

A few things about me: I enjoy weekends with my partner and my Greyhound Charlie as well as camping and taking any opportunity to explore Victoria. 

I hope to see you all sometime soon.

Zoe Danaher (Library Technician)

Hello South Melbourne Primary School community. 

My name is Zoe and I work in the school library. I grew up in Melbourne and live with my husband, two children and our cat Astro. I enjoy spending time with my extended family, running, cake decorating and of course reading! 

I have a lot of new books waiting to be borrowed when school returns and look forward to seeing everyone in the library next year.
