Every day at Our Lady’s is an adventure in education, thanks to the wonderful staff and the inspiring students. Our Lady of Lourdes parents and wider community are the most supportive groups that a principal could ask for!
Away from school, much of our family time is spent supporting my two daughters in their school and sporting endeavours.

Religious Education, Learning Diversity

Our Lady of Lourdes provides a nurturing environment for staff, parents and our kids and I love being a part of that. Daily I witness genuine care shown toward each other and our students.
I feel honoured to support our  parents who may have a  child with some extra need, knowing that we (all staff) will work together to help them achieve. Watching your children blossom is such a reward.
Outside of the busyness of school, I love the busyness of my family and all the joy and hiccups that brings. Weekends away or trips in the caravan are always enjoyed and treasured.

Learning & Teaching, Student Wellbeing, Literacy

The students at OLOL are truly wonderful. Their energy and willingness to learn makes every day rewarding.
Students continually learn and grow and, as teachers, we do too. I enjoy working collaboratively with our staff to drive progress and learning growth in Literacy, for all students.
Outside of school, I am forever keeping up with my delightfully busy children!

I love seeing our students grow and develop from Prep to Year 6, a special joy is watching their faces transform with smiles while singing, dancing and performing. I am blessed that our school community embraces the Performing Arts and all staff help to produce our school musical. This gives us all an opportutnity to ‘Shine’.

Outside of school, I enjoy relaxing with my husband at our rural block and playing flute in a local Orchestra.
