Lisa St John
Albany Hills State School
One of the highlights of the year at Albany Hills State School is all thanks to Lisa St John, who has been nominated for a Queensland College of Teachers Excellence in Teaching Award.
Each year, Lisa goes to enormous lengths to organise the Under 8s Day for nearly 400 Prep to Year 2 students, their younger siblings and children from local kindergartens and child care centres.
The Albany Hills State School Early Years Key Teacher has worked closely with her teaching partner and fellow Prep teacher, Lisa Borgeaud-Moo, to continually improve her practice and to reflect, which has benefited countless students and families.
“The two Lisas”, as they are known at the school, teach together in a double room at the school.
Lisa seizes on a range of learning opportunities for her students including the Fancy Dress Ball, excursions to the Bunyaville Environmental Education Centre and visiting performances.
She also manages to meet the demands of the current curriculum with age-appropriate teaching that meets the developmental needs of her Prep students.
She is known for always being keen to help others.
Congratulations Lisa on your nomination.
