Katie Taylor (Chair Person)
Hi, I’m Katie. My 2 daughters currently attend Vasse Primary. We have a long family history at Vasse Primary School, with Frankie and Juni being 5th generation on their Dad’s side to attend the school. Vasse is a lovely school and I enjoy being involved in its strategic direction, ensuring it continues to be a great school for generations to come.

Professionally, I have worked in State and Local Government for the past 15 years mainly in Community Development. I have experience in community engagement, strategic planning, governance, advocacy and have chaired a number of community committees. I am passionate about youth mental health and ensuring that our community is accessible and inclusive for all.  I am a pragmatic decision maker, friendly and approachable and love to have a laugh.

Amy Gornall (Parent Representative)
“I have lived in Busselton for the past 10 years, and holidayed here a lot throughout my childhood. I have two children at Vasse Primary. Our connection to the school began with Vasse Playgroup of which I was President for 2 years before my daughter started school. I am a Marine Scientist, and the Operations Manager at Busselton Jetty. My work with Busselton Jetty Inc. allows me the ability to connect with many different facets of and people within our local community.

Between my current role, as well as 7 years working in Science Communication at Scitech prior to having my children, I have experience in development and presentation of education programs, in particular in the areas of science and conservation.

Ulrika Larsson (Parent Representative)
“I was born in Sweden but have lived in Busselton for the last 16 years, 10 of those in beautiful Vasse. Me and my husband Luke have 2 fun and cheeky boys, one currently at VPS and one little one who will start in a few years.

Wine is not only a passion of mine, but I have also made my career in the wine industry and have been working in this field for most of my time here in the region – the last 10 years at Clairault Streicker where I currently hold the position of Brand and Venue Manager.

Outside of work I live an active and very social life full of camping, motorbikes, exercise and dinner parties among lots of other hobbies. I am very passionate about education and hope to bring some contemporary and inventive ideas and strategies to the board.“
