Twelve yearsand the sign is here
Our Celebration of Learning was the best day. Classes filled to the brim with visual art inspired from a range of local national and international artists. Our visitors enjoyed being able to hear the stories behind the art and the journey taken to produce it. To produce a quality visual art piece a lot of elements have to go together to make it work. It’s the concept behind the art, it’s the exposure to the art materials and then it’s the time to practise to refine the final piece.
The long snaking line of students at the skipping rope. Jump in, jump out and off they go, happy and excited. Some still have to "Learn It". Others have reached the "Prove it" stage. Many will remain, comforted to be in a safe inclusive group.
Since 2010, I have been the passionate Principal of this vibrant, successful, and innovative school. It's without hesitation, I say I'm focused on "accelerating growth for student learning outcomes".
My style is fostering a culture of professionalism formed on a solid foundation of critical reflection. My own professionalism is expanded through a network of advanced educational practitioners. Practitioners who extend my theoretical, philosophical and pedagogical base. Fundamental in my belief, is strategic dialogue will map learning and teaching so innovation and creativity can flow into an innovative curriculum.
From considerable leadership experience, I know the school's vision has to be "crafted collaboratively". The adaptive vision must be student driven with ambitious academic goals. Raising success hinges on repeatedly asking: "does this decision help realise the vision?"
