Our Leadership Team

Guiding Our Community

with Care and Clarity

At Australian Christian College Benalla, our leadership team is united by a shared commitment: to see every student known, loved, and taught well. With a depth of experience and a heart for Christ-centred education, they provide steady guidance, clear vision, and genuine support for both staff and families.

Leadership here is more than administration — it’s about creating a culture where students feel safe, encouraged, and inspired to grow in every area of life. Through thoughtful direction and authentic care, our leaders help shape a school community where high expectations go hand in hand with deep relationships and a strong sense of belonging.

I love ACC Benalla because I get to truly know our students, not just how they learn, but who God made them to be. It’s a joy to celebrate their strengths, support them through challenges, and be part of a team that champions every child’s growth.
