Farewell & Thank You, Nadia
A farewell morning tea was staged in the Staff Room earlier today for much-loved PLHS staff member, Nadia Rusden. Her close colleagues in the Admin building penned the following parting message:
“Nadia, thank you for all your help over the years performing the following tasks…
- dishes
- staffroom clean-ups
- laminating
- photocopying
- washing
- watering plants
- computer work
- putting up posters
- delivering letters and parcels to staff
- banter over the Crows and Thunderbirds
- and your favourite… filing
You certainly made life in the office easier for us.
We will miss your favourite sayings every weekly …
- “Don’t even go there!”
- “I knew you were going to say that!”
- “Come on, girlfriend!”
- “You’re hilarious!”
- “No, take your time!”
- “You scared me!”
- “You got a joke for me, Mr. Akehurst?”
We are really going to miss your jokes, your sense of humour and your smiley face.
All the best for your next work adventure – we hope your new workmates will be as fun and friendly as us.”
