Kerry West was born and raised in South Africa, and immigrated to the United States with her family in 2016. She qualified and worked as an Occupational Therapist in South Africa, with a specific focus on pediatric OT, in both mainstream school and special needs educational settings. Unfortunately, due to licensing regulations, she has been unable to work as an OT in the USA. Kerry has spent much of the past decade homeschooling her 4 children (who now attend SCA), and helping her husband run their small business. Kerry and her husband, Timothy (Head of School) are on the pastoral team at Hope Rock Church, and Kerry serves as one of the worship leaders there. She has played the piano and sang much of her life, and enthusiastically agreed to take on the role of elementary music enrichment teacher at the start of the 2024/2025 school year.
