Principal
Dear Parents & Carers,
To end the year I’d like to provide you with a summary of staffing for 2024.
Since my last report Fiona Pike has tendered her resignation. She has accepted a position in Mildura enabling her to be closer to home to care for her four growing children. We wish Fiona all the best for next year and beyond.
Congratulations to Jess Baldock who has accepted the position of Deputy Principal (Faith & Inclusion).
I’m pleased to announce that Lydia Kamau will be joining the secondary team in 2024. Lydia is moving to Robinvale from overseas. Lydia is a highly qualified teacher who comes to us with many year’s experience teaching in secondary schools and glowing references from her current employers.
Our primary school staffing is all but complete. I’m now just waiting on a couple of the pieces of the puzzle to fall into place before we put the final touches on this. I’m completely confident that all primary positions will be filled by the start of next year enabling us to share class lists along with the final staff list for 2024 with families before students begin school in 2024.
Please note the beginning of the 2024 school year dates below and I wish every single one of you a very joyful Christmas and look forward to seeing you all in the New Year!
