I am a proud public school Principal who believes every child should be provided with an inspiring and engaging education. I promote learning opportunities for all students within all domains (intellectual, creative, social emotional and physical development) ensuring all students at Redhead Public School become lifelong learners who have a growth mindset and a strong sense of self identify.
I have worked within the Department of Education for 21 years. I have extensive curriculum knowledge and delivery and have a passion for the performing arts. I have held multiple roles within the Department of Education such as an Assistant Principal, Instructional Leader and Deputy Principal over multiple school and various settings. I have lead schools of various sizes and am dedicated to ensuring all students at Redhead Public School graduate with self regulation, persistence, and independence to tackle any challenges that awaits them at high school.
I am proud to lead and work collegially with my talented executive team, staff and community to ensure Redhead Public School evolves within its educational delivery. I'm focused on preparing future generations of students to be creative thinkers and problem solvers in this ever changing society.
Throughout my career in education, I have been fortunate enough to cultivate and apply my leadership abilities across diverse educational settings, from large schools in the North Shore of Sydney to smaller schools in the Hunter Valley. During this time, I held a variety of roles such as Classroom Teacher, Assistant Principal, Assistant Principal – Wellbeing and Deputy Principal. I also completed a Masters in Educational Leadership & Management through the University of Newcastle, which has deeply enriched my approach to educational leadership.
As an Assistant Principal, I am driven by the belief that every student deserves an inclusive and supportive learning environment where they feel safe, valued, and motivated to excel. At Redhead Public School, I am dedicated to upholding our shared school vision and collaborating closely with staff, students, and the broader community to ensure all students continue to grow as lifelong learners.
I am deeply honoured to be part of the team at Redhead Public School and look forward to continuing to foster a positive school culture thar prioritises both academic excellence and holistic student development.
As a passionate teacher and leader, I value the importance of creating a learning environment for all students and staff that foster inclusion, diversity, rich learning opportunities, engagement, innovation, and the celebration of success. I have a vast array of teaching and leading experience over 15 years across a variety of settings, grades and demographics including New South Wales, Northern Territory, United Kingdom and Japan. As a member of the Redhead Primary School community, I will continue to strategically work with the school’s multi-skilled staff, students and community to strengthen the dynamic, inclusive and caring environment. I will support the schools vision statement of creating and supporting an inspirational learning environment where every child is provided with the opportunity to collaborate, create and think critically. I feel very fortunate to be part of the Redhead school community and look forward to sharing my expertise and continuing to ensure our school is an exemplar for current and future educational practises.
