We take pleasure in welcoming Antonia Suthers to SCAS in 2022 as our new Coordinator of English and French. Antonia joins us from Kinross Wolaroi School in Orange, where she spent eight years working in a number of roles, including K-12 Literacy Coordinator, Second in Charge of English, Manager in Charge of Water Polo and Mentor to the Gifted and Talented program. Before that, Antonia spent fourteen years teaching English and History at Maryborough State High School in Queensland.
The Media Team sat down with Antonia early in Term 1 to find out a little more about her.
