Annamaria has been teaching and leading in the ACT for 28 years, including being Principal at Lyneham Primary School for 9 years and now as Foundation Principal at Throsby School, which opened this year.  High expectations and achievement for all students, regardless of their background, learning needs and circumstances, is central to my motivation as founding Principal of Throsby School.  Strong connections with self, each other and the land are central to our students reaching their social, emotional and academic potential. She is a strong advocate for Inclusion and Social Justice.
