That's a wrap. 30 years in the classroom & admin & time for retirement. I always think best when I drive so I toured all 8 schools of my career. Great memories of staff, students and families but I'm also excited for the next chapter. #WhatsNext

We finished our #HughCairnsVC Pride sidewalk flag and gathered as a school community for a photo. What an amazing show of support, inclusion for our community. #LoveIsLove #HappyPride

More time for officiating, travel, family and fun. Looking forward to the next chapter. #AlwaysATeacherAtHeart

5 as a classroom teacher, 9 as a Vice Principal, and 16 as a Principal. Working with kids, families and staff has been an honour. I'll miss many things but the laughter and learning I've received from students will be missed the most.

1/3 So for those who don't already know, this is my last school year and I will be retiring at the end of June. Pics from 1st year and last (Yes we used chalkboards when I started teaching). 30 years of teaching has been exciting, exhausting, fulfilling, fun, and frustrating, but never, never boring

Lots of learning this week at #HughCairnsVC ahead of #RedDressDay and today our Gr. 8's showed off the learning they did by inviting senior classes and community members to share their learning in the gym. #NoMoreStolenSisters
