Deputy Principal Report - Susan Whysall

Once again our students have achieved excellence in various academic, sporting and cultural activities this year. This success is testament to the hard work of our students and the dedication of our staff.

I am proud to be a part of a talented team who work incredibly hard to provide a range of opportunities for our students. Each year our staff are supported by many agencies and individuals in our community. We are fortunate that others invest their time and expertise in order to help our students reach their potential. I am also very grateful for the support I have received from families. Communicating honestly and working together has indeed been the key to success.

The most important aspect of my work is the time I spend with students. We have a dynamic student body who continue to amaze with their energy, commitment and talents. Often students come to me for support; I am humbled that they trust that I will do my best to help them work through their concerns. By listening to each other and considering all perspectives we are able to make positive steps forward. I have worked closely with many students this year; I am constantly impressed with their resilience and kind hearts.

This is my last year at Royal Oak Intermediate. I will miss the vibrancy of our school community and in particular the enthusiasm of our students. I am very proud of our students and encourage them to believe in their self worth. They have much to offer our community both now and in the future. To the staff I offer my heartfelt thanks for their support over the years. It truly is a team effort every day and I am grateful for their dedication and friendship.

I will look back on my time at Royal Oak Intermediate with great fondness. It has been a privilege being a part of this community. I wish you all much success and happiness it the future.

Miss Susan Whysall
