Anngela Bell
Where did you grow up and go to primary and secondary school?
Grew up in Ashburton-An Eastern Suburb of Melbourne. Went to Ashburton Primary School and then went to Glen Waverley Secondary College.
Why Bairnsdale?
My Dad moved to Bairnsdale when I was 13. I’ve always come up for weekends and spent many a school holiday here. So when I graduated I thought “Why not apply for teaching jobs in Bairnsdale?”. That was 6 years ago and I don’t think I could go back and live in the hustle and bustle of Melbourne!
How long have you been involved in education?
This is my 6th year. I have been fortunate enough to have taught in a range of schools in Bairnsdale and Nicholson. And since they have all been different, some small, I have had the opportunity to teach specialist subjects as well as teaching grades.
What do you like to do with your spare time?
Since moving down here, I’ve found that sport is the key to making friends. So I have been playing volleyball and basketball (it’s great that I’m tall). However my favourite leisure activity is swimming. Also I have a dog named Koda and I spend a lot of time walking and playing with him.
