Introducing the Chair of The Hutchins School Board – a message from our Principal, Dr Rob McEwan

Mr Michael Cooper and Ms Brenda Cooke

I am pleased to share with the community the appointment of Mr Michael Cooper (’86) as the new Chair of The Hutchins School Board and Ms Brenda Cooke as Deputy Chair.

As a Hutchins alumni, Mike has a long-standing connection with the School and brings extensive leadership experience as a CEO and Director across several businesses, along with expertise in property development. Current parent and lawyer, Brenda, has a distinguished career in the financial sector, bringing strong skills in governance, compliance, and risk management. We look forward to the vision and dedication they will bring to their new roles.

On behalf of the Hutchins community, I also thank Mr Andrew Walker (’82) for his outstanding contribution to the School over the past ten years as a valued member of the Board, including the last three and half years as Chair. Andrew’s strong leadership and thoughtful guidance have helped steer the School through significant milestones, most notably the planning and commencement of the N J Edwards Hub – the largest building project ever undertaken on our Sandy Bay site. His commitment, generosity of time and expertise have left a lasting mark on the School.

On behalf of our students, staff and families, I extend our sincere gratitude to Andrew, and our congratulations to Michael and Brenda as they step into their new leadership roles.

Dr Rob McEwan
Principal
