Service Manager
Hi, my name is Agatha (Aggie) and I am the Service Manager for Busy Bees at Newcomb. I have been working with children for the past 25 years. I have held my Diploma for 20 of those years. I have had many roles within this time ranging from a Lead Educator to management positions. I have also completed my Diploma in Community Services and volunteer with local community support services.
I believe children have unique capabilities and strive to give them appropriate tools and opportunities to achieve them. I believe my role is to guide interest and inspire children to explore, discover and learn. Children have a natural wonder and curiosity when it comes to everyday life, and their infectious zest for learning new things makes it a joy to work with them.
I moved over from Fremantle Western Australia 13 years ago and since have been living in Leopold with my husband and our pooch baby girl. I enjoy camping, travelling and live music. I enjoy gathering with friends and family in my spare time.
In the spirit of reconciliation, Busy Bees Early Learning acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and recognises First Nations peoples’ continued cultural and spiritual connections to land, sea, sky and community. We pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging, and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
