Yesterday afternoon, staff gathered in the Lunch Room to farewell several staff members, some only going on leave for 12 months, some finishing contracts for 2018 and others who will be leaving our College bound for new horizons. Mr Nott, Mrs Cesari and Mrs Gormely were wished well for a 12 month period of leave all with strict instructions that they must come back. We also gave thanks and well wishes to Tania Fraser, Michelle Patterson, Bec Taylor, Carlin Ruhle, Angela Lowe and Lisa Gwynne who have finished a contract and will either be moving on or continuing as supply teachers or teacher aides into 2019.

We also farewelled Mr and Mrs Hobson, Mrs Hegedus, Ms Foster and Mrs Martin who will not be returning in 2019 and are taking on new and exciting challenges. It was a very emotional occasion as each staff member recalled their journey at Our Lady of the Southern Cross College giving thanks for the experience working with staff and students over many years.

We wish all these staff members well whether they are leaving or taking leave and we give thanks for the contribution each person has made to the life of our College and its community.
