Dear PAS Families, 

I am writing to let you know that I have accepted the position as Principal of Andrew Sibbald School.  My last day at Patrick Airlie School will be February 10, 2026. 

I have been so very lucky to be part of the Patrick Airlie community! This is a special place and the support and kindness of our students and families is wonderful. I am proud of the work we have done to move learning forward, build connections amongst our families and engage supports and services within CBE and the Forest Lawn community. Thank you for the opportunity to grow as a leader and to build a sense of connection and trust with you and your children. 

My Education Director, Prem Randhawa is working on the HR process for hiring a new Principal.  As part of this process I would ask you to read the letter and complete the survey. Part of the hiring process is getting feedback from parents and staff to determine what they value in a Principal. Please take the time to complete this survey. 

I look forward to my continued work at Patrick Airlie School, over the coming weeks. Thank you for your support and teamwork!

All the best, 

Mary-Elizabeth Kaiser

Principal, Patrick Airlie School
