Recognising Long Serving College Staff

We are proud to celebrate the work anniversaries of six of our College staff who have each served between 20-25 years at Saint Kentigern College. Together, they have over 130 years of teaching experience and have helped impart knowledge, inspire confidence, and shape the character of many of our students.

Adhering to Covid-19 restrictions, a small gathering was hosted in December to honour these dedicated teachers for their hard work and commitment over the years.

Congratulations and thank you for being an invaluable part of the Saint Kentigern College team for so many years!
