Welcome to the CaSPA website.

On behalf of the CaSPA Board, I would like to wish all of our Catholic Secondary Principals and their school communities the very best for 2023. As we move carefully into a post pandemic time, I hope this year will be a time of consolidation and continued growth for staff and students. My very best wishes to all of our Principals especially our Beginning Principals and Principals who are joining a new community this year. May the 2023 be full of joy and God’s blessings.

The CaSPA Board looks forward to continuing its representation of Catholic Secondary Principals with the Australian Government and other associated agencies. CaSPA also looks forward to further developing the collaboration with Australian Catholic Primary Principals’ Association (ACPPA), State & Territory Catholic Associations, International Confederation of Principals (ICP) and the Coalition of Australian Principals (CAP).

A key focus for this year will be supporting the work and wellbeing of Principals and actioning our new Strategic Plan for 2023 - 2025. I hope you will enjoy CaSPA’s monthly newsletters and please make use of our website, which has many resources for your convenience.
Blessings to all

Ann Rebgetz
CaSPA President
