After 17 years of outstanding service at Rydalmere Public School, Mrs Martelli has been appointed Assistant Principal of Ngarala Public School, a new school in Epping that opens in 2023. She will be working alongside Mrs Zadow, our former principal, who left RPS to begin the work of establishing the new school earlier this year.
Mrs Martelli's final day at Rydalmere Public School will be Friday October 21.
Starting a new school is a rare privilege and an exciting opportunity for any teacher. However, in spite of this, I know the decision was not easy for Mrs Martelli. She remains passionate about, and enjoys her work here at RPS, and she cares deeply for our students.
Mrs Martelli is loved by our students, our staff and our community. She will be missed by us all. The contributions she has made over the past 17 years are impossible to quantify. We have much to thank her for.
Congratulations Mrs Martelli. You deserve this opportunity, and I wish you all the best.
Our teaching staff have been invited to submit expressions of interest to be appointed Relieving Assistant Principal for the remainder of Term 4. A merit selection process to appoint a permanent Assistant Principal will take place this term.
