Connecting College and Community

AGM and the 2022 Team

At the Annual General Meeting this week, we acknowledged parents and staff for their dedication to the Friends of Pacific over the past year. A special thanks went to outgoing executives Belinda Watman (Treasurer), and Pastor Tim Jarick (Pastor) for their energy and time. We also acknowledge two wonderful 2021 executives, Teena Thompson (Vice-President) and Louise Walker (Junior College Executive), who both will be staying on in 2022 to serve the Pacific community but in different executive positions.

I am honoured to take up the position of Chairperson once again. We welcome the following new and returning members to the 2022 executive committee.

• Vice-Chairperson: Allyson Sarvari
• Secretary: Jane Hill
• Treasurer: Louise Walker
• Executive Committee Members:
  • Jan Watman (Foundation College)
  • Renae Costa (Junior College)
  • Teena Thompson (Middle College)
  • Held over until next the meeting (Senior College)

We look forward to continuing to strengthen our connections within the Pacific community this year.
