Middle Years

What a big year it has been!  There have been so many changes and challenges this year, however, you have all handled them extremely well.

 

I’d like to take this opportunity to publicly thank our amazing Middle Years Sub School Team.  They have worked so diligently throughout 2020 to help all our students, staff and families.  Their effort, dedication and passion has been unrelenting across the year.

 

I’d like to say a special thanks to both Daniel Brooks and Bethany Gaschk who will be taking on new opportunities in 2021.  Daniel has been a valued member of the Middle Years Team for the past four years and has worked closely with students from Year 7 to 10.  Daniel's greatest strength is his ability to build rapport with everyone that he works with.  Bethany has guided our Year 7 students, for the past two years, through one of the most significant transitions in their lives and has always done so with a strong sense of caring and compassion.

 

Our Middle Years Sub School Team for 2021 is:

Assistant Principal (Middle Years) – Shane Kruger

Leader of Catalyst Programs and Transition – Middle Years: Kathleen Timms

Year 7 Leaders – Jacqui Franks and Jessica Ivankovic

Year 8 Leaders – Virginia Nugent and Alex Shepherd

Year 9 Leaders – Andrea Digby and Ben Karwan

 

I hope everyone has a well-deserved break over the holidays and I look forward to seeing everyone back for the beginning of 2021.
