Education and family ties are the cornerstones of our lives, shaping who we are and the values we hold dear. For my family, our journey through St Hilda's School has been a transformative and cherished experience. A past student myself, alongside my two sisters, Janelle and Alana, we carry fond memories of our formative years spent at this prestigious institution. From year 1 to year 12, we walked the halls of St Hilda's School, embracing a world of knowledge and personal growth. Graduating in 1990 was a milestone moment that enriched my life and shaped my future.
Our connection with St Hilda's has spanned generations, through the lives of my children and nieces, instilling in them the same spirit of excellence and
community involvement. Inspired by my experience, my two daughters, Christie and Larissa, along with my three nieces Mondi, Emily and Jessica all embarked on their educational journeys at St Hilda's. Witnessing them flourish academically, socially, and emotionally filled my heart with pride and reinforced my belief in the school's mission. Meanwhile, my son Jake attended The Southport School (TSS), another esteemed institution that complemented St Hilda's values of academic rigor and holistic development.
Beyond the confines of academia, I found myself drawn to the St John's Crisis Centre, where I am a Board member and valued member on the fundraising committee for the past 3 years. This inspiring organisation feeds over 30,000 people annually and provides much-needed comfort and
