“I was so sad to hear that Mr Mitchell wouldn’t be continuing at our school next year. My daughter, Sophie, spent the year in his class, and I watched her absolutely flourish. Craig took the time and care to help her grow both academically and emotionally. As a parent, I always felt heard whenever we had concerns and was met with nothing but support and understanding. We genuinely consider it the best year of her schooling, and that is a credit to his outstanding teaching. We wish him every success at his new appointment and will always be grateful for the positive impact he had on our daughter.”— Imogen, Parent of a Year 6 student, Central Coast Public School (2022)
“Just a quick note to say thank you for an awesome term. We are so grateful for the positive impact you’ve had on Liam and his learning. He has developed such a positive attitude towards school, despite his challenges, thanks to your guidance, encouragement and support. School is no longer just about sport for him! He recently told us that even though you’ve only known him for half a year, it feels like you’ve known him forever. That speaks volumes about the connection you’ve built with him.”— Graham & Rachel, Parents, Central Coast Public School (2023)
“We want to sincerely thank you for the incredible dedication and support you showed Olivia throughout the year. Your commitment to your students is evident, and it made an enormous difference to her confidence and overall experience at school. We especially appreciated how you noticed the small challenges she faced with other students and dealt with them so thoughtfully, ensuring she always felt safe and supported. Your encouragement helped her believe in herself, both academically and personally. We are also grateful for the many sporting opportunities you provided, which allowed her passion to shine. Thank you for being such a caring, patient and inspiring teacher.”— Sarah, Parent of a Year 8 student, Central Coast High School (2025)
“Every child remembers one teacher who truly inspires them. For Ethan, that teacher is Mr Mitchell. This year has been different—he has been excited to go to school every day, comes home talking enthusiastically about what he has learned, and has grown tremendously in confidence. Craig’s high expectations, balanced with humour and genuine care, have encouraged Ethan to participate more, believe in himself and enjoy learning. We are incredibly grateful for everything he has done.”— Jane- Parent of a Year 6 student, Central Coast Public School (2026)
I’ve had the privilege of knowing Mitch for more than 30 years. He has been a constant source of guidance throughout my journey as a professional golfer.Our friendship began years ago when we played football together, and it has remained strong ever since.
With his extensive background in teaching, Mitch has a unique ability to connect with athletes, explain concepts clearly, and build confidence. He creates an environment where athletes feel supported, understood, and motivated to improve.If you choose to work with Mitch, I can confidently say that you or your athlete will be supported every step of the way.
His calm, patient approach, combined with his ability to provide clear direction, ensures that every session is purposeful and that you’ll always understand the next steps in your sporting journey. David Fahey , 2026. PGA Golfer
