Alina

“I am constantly offered opportunities for training to further my education and skills so that I can keep up with the demands of my job.”

Treating people fairly, equally and with respect, and helping to promote a school culture of inclusion, is of utmost importance to Alina in her role as School Administrative Officer for NSW Department of Education.

No two days are ever the same for Alina in her varied role. Her day-to-day duties range from answering phones, processing enrolments and general school administrative work to performing first-aid and assisting the school principal.

It’s this variety, combined with the flexibility and daily interactions her role offers, that motivate Alina in her job.

“I love that every day is different. Plus the hours suit my family life, and there are always new people to converse with – students, staff and parents, each with a different story and goal,” she relates enthusiastically.

Outside of school, Alina enjoys spending time with her family and keeping fit – running is one of her passions.
