At our recent John Lambert Assembly, we surprised Mrs Munce with a special presentation. Penrith Anglican College is incredibly fortunate to have staff members who embody our College values, and Mrs Sue Munce stands out as an exceptional example, having dedicated many years to service initiatives.

Her dedication to Jump Rope for Heart is profound. In 2025 alone, the College raised an impressive $22,082, an effort that Mr Simon Cowie, General Manager of the Heart Foundation, specifically praised as consistent and tireless. Mrs Munce's meticulous spreadsheet shows that, as a College, we have raised a staggering total of $206,853.72 since 2007.

Beyond heart health, Mrs Munce is even more passionate about the work of Compassion, advocating for children around the world for over 20 years at the College. She has tirelessly led efforts, with the help of many others, to ensure that every year group and House group sponsors children, aiming to teach students the profound value of sacrificing a small amount to release children from poverty. A recent meeting with Compassion's School Partnership Officer underscored the significance of this ongoing partnership and the model it provides to encourage other schools to join in this important work.

We extend our deepest gratitude to Mrs Munce for her vision, perseverance, and personal commitment over more than two decades, which have truly taught us what it means to serve Christ and others.
