Well we have made it through Term 2. Thank you to the school community for making me feel so respected and welcome. I am leaving with a wealth of knowledge that I will treasure, working at Lindisfarne has been a fantastic learning experience and I am thankful for the skills I’ve acquired. I will be heading back to my role as principal at Gagebrook Primary School, I know the staff and students are very eager for Indy to return!

It has been a pleasure and a privilege to have worked alongside the staff, students and families of Lindisfarne Primary. I will genuinely miss being part of this community and I take with me fond memories, valuable skills and I hope to one day leave an impression on others similar to the one that this school has left with me.

Term 3 brings with it some staffing changes;

Kel Innis will be returning as Principal from the start of Term 3.

Chantel Barnes has successfully won a senior staff role at Jordan River Learning Federation Senior School. Congratulations Chantel, and we wish her the best for her future. A new PE teacher will be finalised by the end of this week.

Georgie Mountford will be unfortunately leaving and Suzanne Oates and Tam Bloomfield will be team teaching on Grade 5/6 A (as in Term 1).

Ellie Mathieson will also be leaving us and we wish her all the best.

Parks and Wildlife are conducting a third sweep of the Gordon’s Hill Reserve and have employed an independent contractor to clean the area of any remaining material. There will be no Bush Kinder in the foreseeable future. Parks and Wildlife will formally notify the school if and when the area has been cleared for re-use.

Thank you again for allowing me to feel a part of this wonderful community. I wish everyone a happy and safe Term 2 holiday break!

Kind regards,

Sarah Hoban 

Principal
