We thank our Director of Learning, Andrea Sherwood, Faculty leaders, teachers and support staff throughout the whole School, who uphold the exceptional education we offer students from Early Learning through to Year 12, in the classroom and online. We acknowledge Head of Senior School Andrew Whiteman, Head of Senior Students Amelisa Mislov, and Heads of House for their dedicated support and guidance of our Year 12 cohort.
