This was not an easy decision to make. Indeed, I agonised over it for days before deciding to accept this most demanding and challenging position. I hope that in the fullness of time, this will be in the best interests of both Warilla High School and the Shoalhaven schools that I will directly oversee. Can I say without a word of doubt, Warilla High School is - and remains - an excep- tional school. It is exceptional because of the compassion and empathy displayed by staff on a daily basis. This school really does make a difference in the lives of kids and their families. I am privileged to have had the opportunity to have been Principal here for the best part of five years and to have had the opportunity to learn from some outstanding edu- cators about what constitutes a quality school. I am hopeful the legacy I leave will be a clearly articulated belief about our direction and how kids learn - a belief that sees meeting the learning and individual needs of students as our prime focus. I have a framed statement in my office which reads as follows: “We are here to help children succeed.
