Lynn Balfour retires as Ettalong principal
Ettalong Public School principal Ms Lynn Balfour has decided to retire.
The position will be filled through "merit selection", with the Education Department's relieving educational leadership director Ms Kylee Owen convening the panel.
Relieving principal Ms Jodie Campbell said: "Lynn has been a member of our school community since 2007, arriving here as an assistant principal.
"Through merit selection, Lynn gained the deputy principal role in 2012 and then went on to secure the principalship in 2018.
"She is our school's first female principal.
"She has taught thousands of students and shared her knowledge with hundreds of staff throughout her 27 years in public education.
"We wish Lynn every happiness in her retirement and look forward to seeing her in our community and in our school as a Breakfast Club volunteer.
"She has already popped her name down to do this.
"We will certainly miss Lynn's sense of humour and her support of our school."
