I am the leader of Body and Mind at Whyalla Secondary College in 2024. I teach in a range of subjects including Year 8 Body and Mind, Year 9 Rec PE, Year 10 Rec PE, Year 11 and 12 Health Science and ACEE Mathematics and English. I have a strong interest in sport and health, most notably in running which is a big passion of mine. I run with the Whyalla Harriers and also compete across Australia for a range of running distances. I have worked in Whyalla over the past five years and thoroughly enjoy working at WSC. I am excited to see what the students can achieve in 2024.

Hi Whyalla Secondary College, I am the new Sports Coordinator. I will be teaching Stage 2 Health and Wellbeing, Stage 2 Nutrition, and Body and Mind (PE) across years 8-10. I started my teaching career in Adelaide, moving to Gladstone High school last year, and more recently moving to Whyalla. My enthusiasm for health and physical education has been a long passion of mine and extends into my personal hobbies and lifestyle. I formally played in the SANFL for West Adelaide, but now spend my time staying active running with my dog Oakley. You’ll also catch me on the basketball court if I’m not busy camping or at the gym. You might think you’re seeing double, but you’re not; that is my older sister who has also started work at Whyalla Secondary College. Don’t get us confused, you’ll soon figure out I’m the more competitive one in the family.

Hi, my name is Harry Philp. In 2024 I will be teaching health and PE in year 7, 8, 9, and 11. My passions include music, playing and watching sport. My free time generally includes hiking and just enjoying the great outdoors. This is my third-year teaching in Whyalla, and in my time here I have taught among various subject areas and am always eager to provide my knowledge to students, as well as learn new things they can teach me.

I am the leader of the Whyalla SAASTA program and have a passion for educating others on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture and history. I also teach Senior Aboriginal Studies and Recreational HPE. In 2024 I am most excited about working with the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students to learn about culture and history, and see these students grow into young leaders. Outside of school I love spending time with my fiancé Kelsey and my daughter Marley. We love going to the beach and camping. I also love everything sport and have a passion for football, cricket, golf, surfing and motor racing. I look forward to working with all students to see them achieve their goals.​

Hello, my name is Lachlan Combes, and I am the Year 9 Coordinator once again in 2024.
