Nancy El-Sayed
Nancy has been teaching Humanities for 12 years at Copperfield College in Melbourne's west. Her first impressions of St Helena are of a huge school with a very supportive environment. She became a teacher to follow in the footsteps of the rest of her family, and to try and give back to the community and make a difference. Nancy's passion is food, and you will see her trying new restaurants as often as she can!
Julie Whittington
Julie has taught English and Humanities for 18 years. St Helena is a much larger school that she is used to, but she believes the school has important values and a great motto. She finds the teachers very supportive and the students friendly. Julie loves to learn, and wants to encourage students to develop a love of learning too. Before becoming a teacher, Julie was a tour guide. She was able to show people how amazing Australia is - from its outback to its vast coastlines. When she isn't teaching, she loves to walk/hike, travel, read and appreciate music.
