Meet Our Employee of the Month: Renee Balcombe
St Philip’s Christian College Cessnock believes in honouring and uplifting our amazing staff. We don’t want to brag, but we think that we have one of the best teams in the world. Once a month, we run a staff-nominated ‘Employee of the Month’, where staff can nominate two employees who they believe uphold the College values, as well as go above and beyond to make St Philip’s Christian College Cessnock a better place for our community. We are excited to talk to you about one of this month’s winners, our External Facilities Co-ordinator and Sports Administration — Renee Balcombe.
St Philip’s Christian College Cessnock first appealed to Renee Balcombe as a great place to work because she found it to be a dynamic environment that was continually growing and changing. And after having Renee on our team for six years since, we can say that she has been a key person in both overseeing and actioning positive, growth-provoking change in the College — particularly in the realm of Sport.
Renee has an innate ability to make the seemingly chaotic, make sense. She loves exploring and implementing new ways to do things, that make the communication and ease of access to information for College families clearer and easier to get their hands on. She really cares about our families. She’s inclusive, and that’s the foundation in which she builds these incredible systems.
Renee is looking forward to the return of sport! There’s nothing more that she enjoys than seeing students having fun and radiating the sense of pride that comes with representing the College.
We are extremely thankful for everything that Renee does for St Philip’s Christian College Cessnock and it’s an honour to announce her as Staff Member of the Month for March 2021.
