Recognising Achievements at Sanctuary HKP

Sanctuary Early Learning • August 19, 2025

At Sanctuary Health and Knowledge Precinct, we are building something extraordinary — a place where inclusion, innovation, and community come together for children and families. At this year’s Sanctuary Gala, our centre was celebrated in a special way, with three of our team members recognised on stage for their remarkable contributions.


A celebration of leadership and heart


Our Centre Director, Jemma, was named a finalist for Director of the Year. This recognition reflects the culture she has nurtured — one where every child is embraced, every family feels at home, and every educator is supported to grow. Her vision and compassion set the tone for what makes Health and Knowledge Precinct so unique.


A bright future in early learning


At the same event, Annalise was honoured as Student of the Year. As an emerging educator, she is already making a difference in the lives of children through her warmth, energy, and genuine care. This award acknowledges both her talent and the bright future she represents for our sector.


The Strength of Steadfast Support


Our very own Miss Sam was recognised as Assistant Director of the Year. Known for her steady leadership and caring approach, she provides the strong foundations that allow our team to flourish. Families and colleagues alike feel the benefit of her guidance, organisation, and heart.


More than individual recognition


While these acknowledgements shine a light on Jemma, Annalise, and Sam, they also reflect the strength of the Health and Knowledge Precinct community. From fresh perspectives to seasoned leadership, their recognition tells the story of a team committed to creating a truly inclusive, future-focused environment where all children can thrive.


To our families, your trust and support are part of every success we celebrate. These achievements belong not only to our team but also to the children and families who inspire us every day.


Please join us in congratulating Jemma, Annalise, and Sam on their well-deserved recognition — a testament to the heart and spirit of Sanctuary Health and Knowledge Precinct.
