Our founding teachers have been with us for 13 years of growth, faith and inspiration. Attending to student needs, they share in their experiences and help them learn.

We share our founding teacher stories as part of our 13-year celebrations as the first students who have completed all of their schooling, from Prep to Year 12, at St Peters Springfield.
