Maximising teaching and learning opportunities

Geelong Baptist College primary principal Judy Sobey has an extensive educational background with more than 25 years of teaching and leadership experience in several schools in the Geelong region.

She has been the primary principal at the school since 2018.

Andrew Liberts is the secondary principal and is new to his role this year, but has been at Geelong Baptist College since 2013.

Before going into education, Andrew worked as a journalist, current affairs producer and on breakfast radio in Adelaide and Buffalo, New York.

“As a college, we know that the relationship and partnerships that are forged between home and the college are paramount to our success as parents and educators,” Judy said.

“We seek to maximise the teaching and learning opportunities for each child through creating and maintaining safe, happy environments where there is an atmosphere conducive to learning.

“As a professional team of educators and administrators we are here to serve in an environment in which teachers have the opportunity to teach and students have the right to learn.”

Judy said the core values of the school are synonymous with those of the wonderful families who have chosen to send their children to Geelong Baptist.

“As a community our commitment to the holistic development of each child is very important,” she said.
