On behalf of Heather I'm delighted to announce that she is the recommended applicant for Principal L5 Corrigin District High School. This is a substantive position and a well-deserved promotion. Corrigin is a nice wheat belt town not too far from Perth and close to family and friends. Heather will finish at the end of this term, enjoy some LSL before starting at Corrigin in 2017. Over the next few weeks we'll celebrate Heather's significant contribution to CIDHS in an appropriate way.
