“I love learning and was born with teaching in my blood, being a third-generation educator.

“I’ve been teaching for 41years, teaching at Tweed Valley College in North New South Wales, and in five Adventist Schools across Sydney. This is my fourteenth year as principal of Hurstville Adventist School.

“My teaching career began at Sydney Adventist School, Auburn. This is my nineth year as principal.

With 30 years of experience in schools and tertiary institutions, both inside and outside of the Adventist system, I continue to find joy every day in interactions with students, staff and parents." Having lived and worked in Australia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea and Korea, I feel blessed to have had a wide variety of experience that now enables me to serve at Wahroonga Adventist School where God is at the core of what we do."

“Our school has been around since 1960. It is now a thriving Pre-Kindy to Year 6 school. We have a mission field at Hurstville, and we know that the Holy Spirit is working in the lives of our students, preparing their hearts to hear how much God loves them, and we’re praying that they will ultimately make the decision to follow Jesus and be part of His kingdom.”

“The school is more than 100 years old, and so is quite special. We are a Prep to Year 6 single-stream school, with a caring and nurturing culture that strives for everyone to feel safe, accepted, valued and special. Our approach is Christ-centred, underpinning Adventist World beliefs with an emphasis on the social and emotional learning skills of organisation, getting along, resilience, persistence and confidence.”
