Hello Everyone,

I am Miss Alicia Burdon and as you already know I will be replacing Ms Nadia Pinneri as the 1NP classroom teacher for the remainder of the year while Ms Pinneri fills in a leadership position at the school.

First of all, I would like to apologise for the delay in communication. Unfortunately, over this weekend just gone I became really unwell and was unable to do much. However, I am back and ready to go!

This is my second year at Holy Family where I have previously worked in various roles such as; one of the school librarians, a relief teacher, a classroom teacher and as an OSHC worker within the school. Due to this, the students and I already know each other well. As such, the transition between Ms Pinneri and myself as the classroom teacher should be reasonably smooth.

While I am stepping into some incredibly huge shoes to fill, I assure you that I will continue to provide the same warm, welcoming environment you have come to know.

Miss Dowsett and I are continually planning for the successful learning of the students in our year 1 classes.

Over the next coming week, I plan to either meet with you or call you before or after school so I can personally touch base with you that way you have an opportunity to voice any concerns, ask any questions or share any information about your child. If this is inconvenient or you would prefer to contact me via email, please do. My email is Alicia.burdon@holyfamily.catholic.edu.au.

I look forward to speaking with you all as we finish off 2022 together!

Miss Burdon
