Jenny Chang
Visual Communication Officer
It is great to join Oxley Christian College! I completed a Bachelor of Communication Design at RMIT and had been working in an advertising agency for the last 12 years. Working at Oxley will be a great opportunity to develop my skills.
I like doing exercise, watching movies, baking and reading when I have spare time.
Esther Chen
Junior School Learning Support Assistant
It’s a blessing to be able to join the Oxley Junior School as a Learning Support Assistant. I had previously studied Science and Primary Teaching but for the past 12 years have been a full-time mother of twins. I enjoy working with children of all ages and look forward to supporting students with additional needs in their learning journey.
Julie Choo

I am excited to join Oxley, and the opportunity to work with students and staff in Senior School. I love learning and discovering new things alongside students, being inspired as they grow in confidence and knowledge. In my downtime, I enjoy reading, spending time with family, and travelling.
Mitchell Gaiser
Junior School Teacher
Greetings all! I am truly thankful to God and the Oxley Christian College Core team for the opportunity to be teaching at this beautiful and God-honouring school. I am teaching Year 6 and I have thoroughly enjoyed my first week settling into the daily routines of Oxley Junior School and the building of excitement for the programs this year, such as VCOP Writing, changes to the Barn, and our Canberra camp coming up in a few weeks’ time. Outside of school you can find me rummaging through various record stores trying to add to my growing collection.
Elise Goodwin
Senior School Teacher
I am delighted to be re-joining Oxley Christian College this year as an English teacher. I will be teaching Years 7, 9 and 11 English as well as taking a Year 9 Home Group. I look forward to getting to know my students and to help guide them through their secondary school journey! I am passionate about teaching English, and hope that I can inspire my students to find a love for the subject too. I am also committed to encouraging students to be the very best they can be in all aspects of life, and to know that God has a unique, wonderful, and exciting plan for their lives.
Susan Kay
Junior School Learning Support Assistant
I feel privileged to have joined the staff here at Oxley. I have worked in learning support for the previous three years and as a primary teacher, in the past. I have a long association with Christian education and greatly appreciate working in a school where Biblical principles are central.
I love all sorts of crafting and currently I am doing lots of knitting and quilting.
Sarah Law
Senior School Teacher
I am very excited to be joining the Oxley community. Both my children attend Oxley. One in the Junior School, and my little one at Oxley Kids. I taught at the Victorian College of the Arts Secondary School prior to starting my family, and I am loving being back in the classroom. I’m teaching a range of subjects from Years 7 -10, and I am also a Year 7 Home Group teacher and Red House mentor – go Gibeon Warriors!
I love being involved in the school community and seeing my students succeed beyond their expectations.

My prayer is that each one will come to know their identity, purpose and destiny in Him!

G'day! I am excited to being joining the Oxley community. I graduated with a double degree of Visual Arts and Secondary Education from Monash and have been teaching Senior Art ever since. The Lord has blessed me with a passion for all mediums of art, and a heart for young people making teaching a dream come true. I look forward to serving you in God's grace, and helping students make something they're proud of.
