Shaun Burney
Chairperson
Shaun is a returning trustee, having already served one term on the Board. He has recently been voted in as the Board Chairman. Currently employed by Classic Builders as their General Manager, Shaun manages a large team of people. He brings strong communicative skills, and extensive financial and business acumen to the Board.
"I have two children at OPS (Kaia Yr 5 and Ollie Yr 3), and one starting school next year (Ariana). Previous to my role at Classic Builders, I was employed by BNZ for 10 years and gained valuable experience working with a variety of organisations ranging from small business through to corporate sized enterprises.
With the new management team in place following Geoff’s departure, I am excited about where the school is heading and wish to contribute where I can to ensure the school can grow and adapt in what is a rapidly changing learning environment. I believe that the school plays a fundamental role in a strong community, and I look forward to contributing to this in my involvement as a Trustee."
