New Principal CAROL MORRISSEY - Setting the Standards… WRITTEN BY SHARON DEAN Newly appointed Principal at Springdale School, Carol Morrissey, is determined that the school’s vision statement “A school with a VIEW: Helping children achieve a future of endless possibilities”, is her number one focus. And Carol has the full support from her Board of Trustees, staff, families and the community, in supporting her pupils to equip them with the skills to become confident, capable learners, giving them the confidence to embrace everything involving learning. Carol is passionate, bubbly, focused, yet there is a part of her that I was rather intrigued by. So what drives this principal, who originated from a small Ohakune town, who taught at schools with rolls of a much larger capacity around Hamilton and Auckland, and the path which has now led her back to a smaller area that resonates with her grass roots? The answer…Carol loves the Waikato, the smaller close-knit communities, and the challenge that comes with allowing children to have an independent voice, teaching and encouraging them how to access knowledge, all the while being surrounded in a safe learning environment. Carol 100 percent believes in her students and emphasises that learning never stops…for the children…the staff…or for herself. She is encouraging of the children trying new things without feeling judged, giving them the opportunities to ask questions to develop their knowledge and that learning is evolving in many different ways…one method of teaching is not always going to work for every child; children are all individuals, they learn at different speeds, they learn as individuals, they have a range of skills…some having academic abilities, some more sports minded, and yet Carol sees each child’s individual talents and abilities and builds on those strengths, yet slowly developing their confidence in areas where they may be out of their comfort zones….and this all comes from…TRUST…trust between a principal and the students…if it is reciprocal, you will have a more productive and happier learning environment. Springdale School has many exciting activities happening within the curriculum. They have opportunities to go on school trips; one in which they have recently travelled to Rotorua as part of the term theme on ‘Belonging’ from a RIGHT: Carol Morrissey - the New Principal at Springdale School. local perspective within the community, and then moving on to ‘Belonging’ in relation to the land, where they get to explore volcanic activity which played an important part of shaping our land in the Waikato. One of Carol Morrissey’s objectives as Principal, is to work towards ‘Environmental Sustainability’. Teaching the students to respect their environment will provide opportunities for the children being able to work with Mr Richard Cookson in developing wetlands. The school curriculum is well balanced, with sports, arts, culture, as well as your normal academic subjects. Carol emphasises, “You have to develop the whole child to meet their needs, and failure is a stepping stone to success”. She says, “I want to do right by these children”. Carol says Springdale School, “is just fantastic”. She further explains the staff are a great team unit, and that it epitomises the phrase, “there is no I in team”. Carol Morrissey is passionate about putting support in place to provide for all the needs of the children. The school employs 10 staff, including teaching and support staff. She believes firmly in developing the growth of the school moving forward. Welcome Carol … I have no doubt with the vision, passion and the experience you bring in your new role as Principal, that you will be a very valuable asset in the development of Springdale School for many years to come.
