With a rich background in education, including leadership roles at St Augustine’s, Caroline brings a passion for learning and community engagement to her new role.
“My last position was deputy principal of Wellbeing and Communities at St Augustine’s,” she said.
“I have a background in learner diversity, adult education, and both primary and secondary education.
“I was very keen to experience and be part of the incredible community spirit that exists here in Tatura.”
Caroline is particularly enthusiastic about the introduction of the Magnify program, a groundbreaking initiative within Catholic education.
“It’s a really strong evidence-based program that will support learners wherever they are,” Caroline said.
“This initiative will provide the structure they need.
“It’s also a great program for teachers, offering an inbuilt coaching system and professional development to ensure the best possible learning environment.”
With just over 240 students at Sacred Heart, the school’s strong sense of connection is something Caroline hopes to build on.
“We already have great relationships with our parents, but strengthening and developing those further would be a huge advantage for our school,” she said.
The transition into her new role has been made easier by the calm and positive learning environment at Sacred Heart.
Caroline is eager to guide Sacred Heart into a future where students are supported academically and nurtured within a strong, connected community.
“Primary education is where we lay the foundations for literacy and numeracy,” Caroline said.
“If we get that right … we give our young people the best chance for future success.”
As she settles into her role, one thing is certain, Caroline Goode’s leadership will be a driving force in shaping the future of Sacred Heart Tatura, ensuring that both students and the wider community thrive together.
