Dr Criddle and the six school captains recently attended the Mayoral Prayer Breakfast. This annual event is hosted by Joondalup Mayor Troy Pickard, and is an event where civic and christian leaders join local school students to pray for the city. The theme of the breakfast was “Mental Health Awareness, Suicide Prevention and Community Wellbeing”. Keynote speaker was suicide prevention advocate Ashlee Harrison.
Our Maths Learning Area recently hosted teachers from around the state for an afternoon of professional development and learning.
Last week we farewelled Justin Beckett (Deputy of Care) and Bernadette Lhota (Head of Learning, HASS). Both Justin and Bernadette are currently on Long Service Leave ahead of significant career changes. Justin has been appointed principal of Trinity Anglican School in Albury-Wodonga and leaves for the east early in December. Bernadette has shifted to teacher training. Both Justin and Bernadette have been loyal servants to the School, wonderful and committed teachers and we are sad to see them leave. We wish Justin and his wife Zoe, and Bernadette and her husband Peter, all the best on the next step of their journeys. Richard Davies has already taken up the position of Deputy Care and we are privileged to have Stuart Gale as Dean of Carana.
