Term 2, Week 6


Hello, my name is Tara Cuti and I have recently been welcomed to Staines Memorial College as the Library Resource Manager. I am presently studying a Bachelor of Education in Primary and Secondary with a focus in English. Previously, I worked in healthcare as a Registered Nurse in Michigan, USA where I lived for 21 years. Nursing was a fulfilling and rewarding career, but I always held a dream in my heart to pursue education. I came to Staines because it’s important to me that I work in a Christ-centred environment that honours God and values His Word. I returned to Australia to live in 2022. My heart is a little divided having two places I fondly call home, but it finds unity with family and friends. I am the third of six children. My siblings are diverse in their career choices from defence to service with the Queensland Police to medical administration. My husband Charles and I have been married for 19 years and have three children and two grandchildren. We also have a dog whose name is Gary. I love to bake. Sometimes I bake late at night, sometimes early in the morning, and always when my 4-year-old granddaughter comes to stay. I also enjoy the quiet of a river and the solitude of a bush track; likely because of the time I spent in remote Western Queensland as a child throwing stones and tackling wild pigs.
