September 2018 saw Petra join the TASSO Management as a Southern Delegate and bring with her knowledge and experience. Petra is an active member of the Triabunna District School Association Committee as a Parent Representative, fulfilling the role of Secretary and now Chairperson. These roles coupled with serving on the Steering Committee of the Raspins Beach Surf Life Saving Club has led to a good grounding in best practice governance.
Petra’s work experience covers the finance industry, motor vehicle wreckers, food service industry and secretarial work in an office environment. Event planning and office duties are
also amongst her many strengths.
Having 3 children, one in Launch into Learning, one in Kindergarten and the oldest in Grade 6 has enhanced Petra’s belief in the benefits of family engagement in education and involvement with the school community. With a keen interest in wellbeing, both mental and physical, fundraising, community involvement and inclusion, Petra is a key driver behind the establishment and growth of a youth hub in Triabunna.
