Many Thanks

At the end of this year we say farewell to some of our staff who are taking on new adventures.

Chris Ramm has decided to resign and enjoy life away from teaching. I know Chris has found this a very difficult decision after years of devoting so much time and energy into education. She has had a huge impact on the lives of so many children in her care over many years. She has definitely encouraged them to develop a love of music. Best of luck Chris and may the years ahead be filled with many new experiences.

Josh Westwood and his wife  have just accepted teaching positions in the Northern Territory. They will be moving their family and settling there for a new life experience.  Many thank you Josh for your contribution to Rollins over the past years and the very best of luck in the coming years. Watch those crocodiles!

Hayley Baxter has accepted a job teaching in the remote areas of WA- this will be a big change full of lots of new and exciting adventures. We thank her for her strong devotion to teaching while a member of the Rollins staff.

Nathan Freind has also decided to spend a year as Chaplain Co-ordinator at Kardinia Church. We thank him for his contribution over the past years- firstly as our Student Welfare Officer and then as a Tutor in Grade 2. 

Silvana  Trajanovska and Gary Hindle have both requested 12 months leave. We wish them both all the best in 2022.
