24.01.2022 Welcome to Mr Justin Clifford! He is one of RVSSC's new superstar teachers, teaching Maths, Science and HPE. Let's learn about Mr Clifford: "My name is Justin Clifford and I am a HPE, Science and Maths teacher. My favourite sport is touch football but I have dabbled in futsal, soccer, rugby league and pool. I go for the Broncos when it comes to Australian footy and the New Orleans Saints when it comes to American footy. My favourite movies are the Star Wars Saga movies in particular 'Revenge of the Sith'. The three core pillars that I value and uphold are organisation, respect and positive relationship building. I am excited to be part of the RVSSC team!"
