I am pleased to announce, following a rigorous interview process involving a very strong field of candidates, Mr Tony Wood has been appointed Head of Moreton Bay Boys’ College.

Mr Wood was chosen following an exhaustive search both locally, nationally and overseas by respected executive recruitment agency, Fish and Nankivell.

Mr Wood is currently the Principal of Fraser Coast Anglican College, a P-12 co-educational day school in Hervey Bay, a position he has held for seven years.

Mr Wood brings an abundance of educational experience to this position, with qualifications that include a Bachelor of Education with a double major in Physical Education and Geography from the University of Sydney and a Master of Education-Administration from the University of New South Wales. Mr Wood is also currently working towards a Graduate Certificate in Theology at the Charles Sturt University.

With more than 20 years’ experience in boys’ schools, Mr Wood is an advocate of single-sex education and believes curriculum for boys requires a specifically tailored approach.

Over the past few years, Mr Wood has also overseen the successful completion of several major capital works projects including a new Technology Precinct, the construction of a Library Resource Centre and a specialised Languages Centre.

Mr Wood holds the belief that happy and secure students perform better academically and will be working to instil this philosophy in his new role at MBBC.

We are privileged to have such an experienced educator and administrator join our College and I hope that all parents join me in welcoming Mr Wood to our community. He will commence at Moreton Bay Boys’ College in the newly created Head of College position on January 1, 2012.
