Statement from Principal

“I can be best described and understood by some of my favourite phrases and sayings that reflect my philosophies that I adhere to. These include: – 

  • I dare to do
  • Never, never give up
  • I won’t listen to you if you tell me it won’t work but I will listen to you if you tell me why it won’t work
  • In business, be hard but never unfair
  • I rather listen to detractors than supporters because I may learn something
  • I lick my lips when I hear it can’t be done
  • Learn by embracing technology and change

and my favourite….

  • The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones that do.”
