The team at St John Bosco have fostered an environment that supports their pedagogical visions - that is, a space where learning is targeted, visible, understood, and celebrated."

Over the past 9 years, Cushla has provided me with encouragement, mentorship and professional advice. Cushla leads by example and creates an environment with her colleagues that is safe, inclusive and allows them to flourish in their own passions and vision whilst keeping the child at the centre. Personally, I would recommend Cushla to anyone wanting honest, kind and specific feedback, mentoring and coaching. She comes with a can do attitude and always sees the way through the most difficult of situations.
