Kathy Melky says jobs as educators don't come any better than being part of the development of a new school.
Melky is principal of Cammeraygal High School, a
newly-established co-educational comprehensive high school for years
7-10 on the lower North Shore of Sydney. The school opened on January 28
for year 7 students and will grow each year to eventually accommodate
500 students.
As principal, Melky says she has been involved with all aspects of planning of the school since the end of 2014.
"I've had the exciting task of working with our parent body
to name the school, design the uniform and logo, and choose a motto,
'Empowered to Achieve'," she says. "I've worked closely with the
architects and project managers over that time to refine the final
design and physical elements of the school."
