Mr Stanislaw Kosiek

Mr Stanislaw Kosiek was employed for 22.5 years from 2001 as a highly respected secondary teacher at Marist College Ashgrove. During that time, he taught Physics, Mathematics and Science in Years 7 to 12, with his specialised area of teaching being in Senior Physics. He held the position of Brisbane North district reviewer of Senior Physics which assisted greatly in bringing excellent academic standards for each new syllabus.  Mr Kosiek worked with the Head of Science in helping Year 11 students prepare for the annual Australian edition of the Physics Olympiad.  His knowledge and teaching ability have been excellent.

Mr Kosiek from 2007 to 2022 also performed his duties as Head of Foley House in which he performed his role with distinction being highly regarded by the school community. 

As Head of House, Mr Kosiek co-ordinated the “Foley 7s” interschool touch football competition, which saw a spirited house vs house annual event across all year levels.  His fundraising contributions included coordinating and facilitating the Christmas Prawn and Ham fundraiser – raising over $ 10,000 during the past 6 years for the Mater Foundation for Cancer Research during his tenure in Foley House.

Mr Kosiek’s commitment to social justice also included leading groups of students in 2014 and 2016 for an extended overseas immersion during the school holidays to a less fortunate Marist school, St Michel Technical College in Vanuatu. Students on immersion assisted under the guidance of Mr Kosiek in a variety of ways which included teaching numeracy and literacy, repairing sporting facilities and building new outdoor structures.

During his time at the College, Mr Kosiek involved himself in co-curricular activities which included coaching Cricket and Rugby Union to Open Seconds level, including touring internationally in coaching Rugby. He acted as tour co-leader to provide an experience for students on annual ski trips to the Australian Alps in school holidays between 2005 and 2019. Mr Kosiek also led students and staff on a successful Science tour to the United States of America to study space technologies.

Mr Kosiek has been a highly valued staff member at Marist College Ashgrove and we thank him for his contribution during this period of service, and wish him well in his future endeavours.
