I join so many across in All Saints Liverpool community in mourning the loss of Mrs Christine Scanlon, former Principal of All Saints Catholic Primary School. Mrs Scanlon served as Principal between 2013 and 2021, a significant period of time in a career spanning over 50 years. Before her time at All Saints, Mrs Scanlon served a number of Catholic schools in Mt Pritchard, Cabramatta, Prestons, and Miranda. In her final years as an educator, Mrs Scanlon mentored newer Principals in neighbouring schools. This is an example of her self-lessness, consideration of other educators and support for the future of teaching in south-west Sydney. Christine Scanlon is widely recognised by staff, students, families, and the wider community at All Saints as a giant of Catholic Education. Her work ethic, care and concern for the Liverpool community is unparalleled. My thoughts are with the All Saints community, past and present, as they mourn Mrs Scanlon, and I especially extend my sympathies to her husband, children, and grandchildren as they navigate this difficult period.
