鈥淪o, are all the teachers winding down and finishing up?鈥�, I was asked last week by a friend who is clearly not involved in education. I realised afterwards that I might have overdone my response a little and could even be said to have indulged in a little rant. I was keen to stick up for teachers who are very much still working hard to ensure learning takes place until the ver ...

It has been a busy week at Carmel School and although the end of term is almost visible in the distance, there is still so much left to do. I reassure myself that it feels this way each year, yet we always achieve what we need to in time for the end of term.

I sat in on an interesting evening presentation to a group of women leaders at AISWA this week, entitled 鈥楾he Art of Patience鈥�. It served to reinforce one of my personal failings, but did provide some interesting thoughts around the importance of being patient.

Sometimes endings are necessary before new beginnings can unfold.

A fabulous beach breakfast, bowling expedition, lunch and valedictory rehearsal made for a fitting final day of school. Now that they have celebrated, enjoyed v ...

Good morning students, teachers, parents, friends, Carmel VIPs, guests and, of course, our Year 12 valedictorians. A valedictory is a farewell address. It denotes the end of something 鈥� in this case, the end of your time at Carmel School. But it also denotes a beginning - it鈥檚 an end and a beginning. It鈥檚 the beginning of the next episode of your lives 鈥� lives which I am confi ...

It is at times like this that one realises the awesomeness of the people around them. I am in the lucky position of being surrounded by people who have this week shown their compassion, their resilience and their resolve. I have felt privileged to have worked this week with leaders at our school who have led with dignity and strength. I have worked with students who have contin ...

The end of Term 3 is upon us and looking back, it has been an extremely busy term. As I write this, our Year 12 students are in the throes of their exams and we have been really impressed with the way in which they have conducted themselves 鈥� their outlook was described to me yesterday as 鈥渃ool, calm and collected鈥�. Although I do understand that this outward calm may not always ...
