Seven years ago, my husband and I, along with our two children, made the move from Johannesburg to Cape Town. From the very first day, my heart was drawn to Elkanah House's ethos. The school's values resonate deeply with mine and are the foundation of everything I strive to achieve here.
As a foundation phase teacher for the majority of my teaching career, my love for working with children and witnessing their growth under my care has always been my driving force. My passion and dedication to academics are consistently pursued with a touch of excellence. Relationships are paramount to me, which is another reason Elkanah House speaks to my heart—each child here is seen and accepted for who they truly are.
My faith plays a significant role in my life, and as I continue my own spiritual growth, I find that being the Principal is not just a job, but a calling. I am convinced that God has placed me exactly where I am meant to be.
Elkanah House's teaching staff are exceptional, bringing a wealth of experience to the table. Our next step is to keep pushing the boundaries of innovation in our approach, ensuring that we teach our children to love beyond self, learn beyond exams, and live authentic lives.
