The Annesley Council

Our School is truly blessed to have a dynamic group of experienced and wise professionals on the Annesley Council. Annesley’s Council Members work collaboratively with a rigorous and respectful approach to governance, debate, planning, oversight and decision making. These generous volunteers are actively involved in the life of our School.
