Principal
Dr Vivianne Nikou
B.A, Dip. Ed, M. Ed Pol Admin, D.B.A; AMACEL; MACE; AFAIM
Vivianne is a passionate educator who chose this vocation after an inspiring experience with a teacher in her own final year of schooling. After spending two decades in a large independent school, time in the corporate world and also running her own business, Vivianne has relished the challenge of leading a smaller and younger school since becoming Principal of Alphington in 2013. Vivianne firmly believes that every child deserves to feel secure in their learning and experience success. She brought this philosophy to Alphington with her and ensures it permeates through the community.

Mr Lukas Silver
B.A, Dip. Ed, PGCE (School Leadership)
Lukas started his teaching career in inner-city London where he worked in schools with high levels of student poverty, deprivation and underachievement. He spent over a decade in London working as a senior consultant to improve teenage literacy and remove barriers to learning for all children. He believes that staff need to have very high expectations of every child so that their potential can be realised. Lukas joined the Alphington community in 2014.
Assistant Principal, Head of Primary
Mrs Tracey Nicholson

Teaching is far more than just a job for Tracey; it is a vocation that she finds to be the best and most rewarding profession in the world. Her passion for primary teaching is evident in everything she does, and her philosophy that learning is a lifelong pursuit is central to all that she brings to the Primary Years at Alphington Grammar.
