We welcome Kristine Mellens as our new accompanist.
Kristine began piano lessons at the age of five with Margaret Hair and then Roy Shepherd. She completed a B. Mus. and B. Ed. at Melbourne University with Mack Jost and an MA in Music at Monash University, and is currently taking a hiatus from her PhD in education. She is a Fellow of Trinity College, London and also studied singing for several years.

In 2006, Kristine returned to Australia after spending 9 years in Latvia, where she primarily worked in education, but also performed there and in Sweden, before her son, Martin, was born in 2000. Before moving to Latvia, Kristine had been President of the Geelong Musical Society for 11 years, taught at Wantirna Secondary College and Geelong Grammar, and had performed as soloist and accompanist extensively.
She now teaches music at Belmont High School and is an accompanist for Geelong College and many private exams and concerts.
She is Vice President of GAMA and Ceres PS Councils and Secretary of the Geelong Music Teachers' Association.
