Robyn Brook née Fry (Staff 1992-95), who died in October 2012, co-ordinated Japanese at Timbertop for four years before pioneering work at Avalon College (see the first paragraph in this Curator’s section) where she became a wonderful tutor, friend, and mentor to many young international students learning English – and about Australia.
