This newsletter piece is targeted at our wonderful staff.  It is difficult to select just a few to highlight so I went to our “Staff member of the week” colleague nominations.  Each week staff identify those who go “above and beyond” in their role. Here are five of these.

• Tegan Wilmott: Tegan is the cog in the wheel that ensures our Junior School Student Services runs smoothly.  She is loved by both students and colleagues alike and goes above and beyond, all day every day, to help out students and staff
• Brittni Pearce: Brittni is the front face of PBC and chances are if you call or visit main administration, Brittni will look after you.  Every interaction she has with parents, students and staff is always friendly and positive. She is a generous, kind-hearted person who goes above & beyond to support staff, students & families.
• Justin Hart: Justin is one of our amazing Instrumental Music Teachers and always strives to ensure the Instrumental Music Program at PBC is amazing and every student is made to feel special.  Nothing is ever too much trouble!
• Krista I’Anson: Our Head of Year 12 provides superb leadership and guidance to this cohort and our student leaders.
• Tom Pasley: Tom selflessly donates a huge amount of his personal time to be PBC’s Sustainability Champion (as well as an awesome teacher).  PBC and the environment can’t thank him enough for all that he does.

Over the last two weeks we have celebrated the wonderful achievements of our students at Optima Awards ceremonies.  Congratulations to all students who received awards.
