Sarah de Wilt

Look who’s back!

Sarah de Wilt was one of our High School English Teachers for six years from 2009. She left Emanuel School at the end of 2014 to pursue a dream in aviation. Sarah relocated to Perth to start her Qantas cabin crew training in May last year and also took on casual teaching at Christchurch Grammar in Perth when she wasn’t flying. Aviation work then involved short-haul trips out of Perth for about 14 months, flying to all Australian capital cities and the Pilbara before Sarah moved back to Sydney in September. She has returned to work at Emanuel on a casual basis when she is not flying, and will be covering High School teaching as well as the Health Centre. The past three months have included trips to Johannesburg, Santiago, Tokyo and Vancouver. We will see Sarah back at school again in early December. How good is it to be able to fulfil one’s dreams and also maintain an ongoing connection to the School at which you loved to teach!

Sabine Jamieson, a Year 12 student here until recently, is one of the two finalists in this year’s Australia’s Next Top Model. 

We wish Sabine mazal tov on this great achievement so far. The winner of the competition will be announced in the finale on Foxtel’s FOX8 at 7.30 pm next Tuesday evening, 22 November.  We are all very excited to have been able to watch Sabine on this incredible journey in her modelling career.

Sabine’s grandfather, a Holocaust survivor to whom she was very close, is internationally acclaimed film maker Yoram Gross, who passed away in September last year. Yoram was the creator of Blinky Bill and the producer of numerous other famous Australian children’s and family films and television series.
