HEAD OF PRIMARY
We are delighted to announce that Mr Paul Anderson has officially been appointed to the role of Dean of Primary (Years 3–6). Mr Anderson has provided steady leadership in the acting role and brings a wealth of experience and a deep commitment to student learning and wellbeing. We also warmly welcome back Mrs Rachelle Brutnell, who returns from Long Service Leave to resume her role as Dean of Primary (Prep–2). We extend our sincere thanks to Mrs Jessica Richards, who led with care and professionalism while acting in this position for the final six weeks of Term 2. Mrs Richards will return to her classroom in 1JR from the beginning of Term 3, and we thank Mrs Elisha Curry for her valuable contribution while teaching the class in her absence.
We also acknowledge Mrs Deb Batchelor for stepping in to cover Mr Rob Cordiner throughout Term 2. We thank Mrs Batchelor for her support and warmly welcome Rob back to campus for Term 3. We are grateful to Ms Kathryn Wilkinson and Mrs Louise Volp, who will continue to provide important support to students across both learning and wellbeing. Finally, we are pleased to welcome back Mrs Stephanie Parbery, who rejoins the Grammar community for the commencement of Term 3. Thank you to Mrs Sally Woolman for covering Mrs Parbery while she has been on leave.
Prep Pick-Up and Drop-Off Reminder
We are excited to see our youngest students growing in confidence and independence. The Prep Pick-Up and Drop-Off area at the Tear Drop (in front of the Administration Building) will continue to operate throughout this Semester. This dedicated space allows our Prep students the time and support they need to enter and exit vehicles safely and confidently.
To support this important stage of development, families with students in Years 1 - 12 are kindly asked to continue using the Chapel area or Kiss and Go zones for pick-up and drop-off. Additional signage will be on campus to remind parents when other year levels can access the Tear Drop area.
Thank you for helping us create a safe, smooth and supportive experience for all our students.
