As you are aware, Mrs Mandy Madaschi will be retiring at the conclusion of this school year. We take this opportunity to sincerely thank Mrs Madaschi for her contribution to our school. She will be a great loss to our school community as a classroom teacher and school leader. I know you will join me in congratulating Mrs Madaschi and wishing her every success in the journey ahead. We will farewell Mrs Madaschi at the Whole School End of Year Liturgy.
