Secretary - Jenny Nunes

Jenny has a son in Year 9.  Having studied Hospitality Management her career has included working for a top game lodge operator in South Africa coordinating large group bookings and related services. In addition, she has spearheaded the growth of weddings at the lodges, and was responsible for sourcing, approving and managing service providers across the various lodges to ensure the bride had the most memorable day. 

Jenny was fortunate enough to enjoy some time as a stay-at-home mom and to fully enjoy all aspects of her children's lives. Whilst doing this, she turned a passion into a business and developed her own photography business that specialised in family photo sessions.

Nothing brings Jenny greater joy than to cater and organise special events for family and friends.

In the past Jenny was actively involved in the PTA at her daughter’s previous school, and assisted in various projects the school needed assistance with. In addition to this, she organised the annual Christmas Market that proved to be a hugely successful annual event. 

During her free time Jenny enjoys spending time with her husband and children, reading a good book or dabbling in the kitchen cooking new dishes.

Jenny hopes to bring her strong organisational and co-ordinating skills to support the PTA members as they embark on fundraising efforts for the school to help improve facilities for the students and teachers.
