    Farewell Peter Gay

    Peter Gay retired as our Facilities Manager at the end of Term 2 after serving with Green Point Christian College for over 26 years.

    When Peter began at the College the Library building was still being completed, and our first Year 12 cohort of 29 students were sitting the HSC.

    During his time Peter has overseen an enormous amount of growth and development with the GPCC property, and leaves the site well maintained and serving our community well.

    Peter was always the first to highlight that the strength of the College was, and still is, the Christian community that we enjoy.

    He served faithfully over this lengthy season at GPCC, and we are deeply grateful for the significant contribution towards the facilities we now enjoy.

    We particularly appreciated his servant hearted approach with the teams that he led.

    Peter and Jo are heading off soon for a well-earned holiday in Europe, and then we may see Peter back from time to time with our Brewarrina missions.

    Thank you, Peter, for everything, and we wish you every blessing in your retirement!

    Alongside Peter’s farewell we warmly welcome Justin Turner who began as our new Property Manager in June this year.
