While we gladly welcome fresh talent in our Melton staff, it is also with sadness that we farewell some of our current team. We thank Robert Court, Sam Vaiano, Jaqueline Riley and Stavi Ekmekdjian for their loyal service to God and to us and wish them well in their next chapters.

In 2022, Amanda Slade, Jannelle Hernandez, Inge Rossouw will all be taking some time off at some point for family reasons.

Homeroom classes for 2022 have already been established and you will receive notification of your Homeroom teacher before the end of the year.

If you have any questions about the above, please do contact us.
