New Principal For Canowindra Public

15 July, 2015 By Canowindra Phoenix Editor

Congratulations to Sharon Hawker who has been officially promoted to the Principal position at Canowindra Public School. After working as the Assistant Principal, Relief Principal and Acting Principal, Sharon is feeling good about starting a new term with new responsibilities.

“I’m very excited,” said Sharon, “and I feel a little bit privileged. A lot of people applied for the position so I didn’t go in just thinking I’d get it.”

Sharon said it had been an easy transition between roles as she already knows the children and staff at the school. “There was nothing different on Monday, it was just business as usual,” she said.

“I’m a team player and everyone here works really well together. There are a lot of layers to the job. This has given me the opportunity to put my own philosophies into what we do which is help nurture the staff and students to fulfil their goals. Every child is an individual and I want to find the program that best suits them.”
