Chanel College welcomes new principal

I am very glad to have this opportunity to be introduced to the Gladstone community as the new Principal of Chanel College.

As my first month in this position draws to a close, I have to say that I am feeling very privileged to have been entrusted with the leadership of what I consider to be an outstanding Catholic educational community.

As an educator with over thirty years’ experience in schools, first in Queensland and most recently in Tasmania, I have to say that I am absolutely convinced of the capacity inherent in education to transform the lives of young people. In particular, in coming to Gladstone, a regional city in Central Queensland, I am firmly committed to ensuring that the students of Chanel College have access to high quality academic and vocational education programs, excellent resources, a committed and expert staff, and the opportunity to choose career pathways that will allow them to prosper in their futures – just as their city counterparts do!
