Today we said farewell to one of our staff, Jagroop Kaur as she begins her maternity leave. 

The staff celebrated Jagroop and her new addition earlier in the month with a baby shower at the Lumberjack and again today with a morning tea. Thank you for all you have done for our students Jagroop, please go home and put your feet up while you can. We will wait with excitement and anticipation of your news!
