Five Questions with a Professional Educator

Professional Educator, Brigid Carrigan, is asked five questions by Sancta's Education Academic Head, Elodie Perotti. While residing at Sancta in the 1980s, Brigid completed her Bachelor of Arts degree majoring in Education, Religion Studies and Sociology. After further studies in Adelaide, she spent most of the next 30 years as a classroom teacher, administrator and leader in Catholic, State or Independent primary and secondary schools in metropolitan and regional NSW and SA. Taking up the opportunity to study and diversify has led her into development and delivery of Vocational Education Training courses, Secondary Religious Studies and Service Learning programs. Not long before taking up her role as Vice Principal at Sancta in 2018, she completed a Masters of Educational Leadership. Brigid currently lives at Sancta with her husband John and their dog Lewis.
