A Look at our Past, Present and Future

As our current group of 'Stipis' settle back into their schools or start Uni, we turn our attention to the teacher who inspired last month's alumnus Thomas White to apply for one of our scholarships. Nathaniel grew up in a part of Geelong once known as Germantown, but had to enrol in Saturday VSL classes to learn VCE German himself. The passion he developed for the language and culture led to him becoming a German teacher himself. At Box Hill High School he has been doing a range of roles for over a decade now, including taking students on trips to a German partner school.
