Our Leadership

Michael Bray

PRINCIPAL

“Gorgeous wife, three cool kids. Forgiven and free. The rest is a bonus! I love ultra-marathons, classic cars, going to the footy and perfecting the art of home espresso. I am passionate about helping young people find their God-given purpose. I believe Christian education is the perfect opportunity to do this. I have the best job in the universe!”

Mia Patterson

DEPUTY PRINCIPAL

“I can’t believe I get to do what I love every day. Still after 35 years in schools my heart sings when I am teaching young people or chatting with staff. I love camping, dancing and the beach and feel daily blessed to be doing life with a wonderful husband, three grown up kids and heaps of wonderful Christian colleagues who dedicate their days to growing incredible young humans.”

Warren Seip

ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL – PRIMARY

“I exist to help others win. I cannot believe I get to help our children and our staff become all that they can be. I have a vivacious wife and an effervescent son. We love to travel, but when we are home, we travel a lot to our favourite cafes here in our beautiful city.”

Ken Wootton

HIGHLANDS CHAIRMAN

“Together with my amazing wife Moira, and my three fantastic kids, we’re passionate to make a difference in the world. Married for over 30 years. We live by the adage of making a positive difference everywhere!”
