On behalf of the Tarrington Lutheran School (TLS) Board, I am delighted to announce that Ms Jane Wiebusch has been appointed as the new Principal from the beginning of Term 2, 2023.
Jane has served in Lutheran Education for over 25 years, most recently as Head of Primary and Deputy Principal at Lakeside College, Pakenham for the last eight years.
Jane comes to TLS with a Bachelor of Education, Bachelor of Arts (Interior Architecture), Graduate Diploma of Theology in Education, and a Post Graduate Certificate in Educational Leadership. Jane is also currently studying a Postgraduate Certificate of School Management and Leadership at Harvard University.
Jane has experienced the length and breadth of Lutheran Education as a student, teacher and leader. Jane was a student at St John’s (Geelong, VIC) and St Marks (Mt Barker, SA) before attending Concordia College in Adelaide. She began her teaching ministry at St John’s Primary (Portland, VIC), before moving to Trinity Lutheran College (Mildura, VIC), Immanuel College (Buderim, QLD) and Good Shepherd Lutheran Primary School (Croydon, VIC).
Jane is excited about joining a community with which her family has a long-standing association. She is a passionate spiritual leader who supports schools to provide powerful contemporary learning for all students. Jane loves to travel, enjoys the Arts as well as outdoor recreational activities including bushwalking, cycling, camping and fishing.
The TLS Board is excited about the future of TLS under Jane’s leadership. In partnership with the current TLS leadership team, we are confident that the school is well positioned to continue to grow and develop as an outstanding Christ centred learning environment where students flourish.
As an interim arrangement for Term 1 Mrs Lois Kube a former Acting Principal at St Peter’s Lutheran School (Dimboola, VIC) and with previous experience as an Acting and Deputy Principal in Lutheran education will be joining us from Queensland.
I look forward to Lois joining us in the coming months to work with staff, students, and the TLS community and Jane in Term 2 when she begins in the role of Principal. Please join me in welcoming both Lois and Jane to the TLS community and wish them every blessing as they transition to lead TLS.
Yours sincerely
Mr Jason Cay
Board Chair
