Dear Students and Parents,

It’s the final week of the school year… as one door closes another door opens. I have accepted a position at St Louis de Montfort’s in Aspendale. This means that it is time to say goodbye to St Paul’s after nearly two decades of teaching in various capacities.  I would like to offer my sincere gratitude and best wishes. I want to thank each child for all the warmth, the memories and the learning we have shared together during this time.  I have always been proud to say that I belong to the St Paul’s community, it’s absolutely amazing!

To my students: I say “Thank you”, for when I teach, I also learn.  Throughout the years, we have grown together and I have been extremely proud of what we have achieved.  A little bit of each of you will always be with me.  Always strive to be the best that you can be! 

To the parents: I say “Thank you” for entrusting me and allowing me to work with your children.  It has been my privilege. Your support has made my time at St. Paul’s both rewarding and enjoyable.

I sincerely (with tears in my eyes) wish your families all the best for the future. 

I will miss you all.

Take care,  Anne-Maree Kolodziej.
