Meet Sandra

Your Sandra Carr Member of Legislative Council

My Background

As a local resident with my wonderful wife Catherine and my two young daughters, I am incredibly honoured and grateful for the opportunity to represent my local community as part of the Cook Labor Government.

I entered Parliament having previously been a proud teacher at Southern River College and a former Councillor at the City of Gosnells. As a former teacher, I am passionate about education and being part of a government that delivers a top quality education for the State’s students as it has the power to provide every child, regardless of their background, with the opportunity to succeed in life.

We are delivering on a number of exciting commitments in this space, including my promise to build two new primary schools in Southern River, having opened Southern Grove Primary School and Yarralinka Primary School. We are also delivering upgrades to facilities at our local high schools and putting additional education assistants back into WA classrooms    

Sandra raised her two children in Geraldton, and prior to entering parliament was a much-respected English teacher. She has worked in a range of school leadership roles, research roles, project management, and also worked throughout the Midwest-Gascoyne-Wheatbelt areas delivering drug and health education for regional students.

Sandra served on the board of Desert Blue Connect, a not-for-profit organisation delivering valuable services for the safety and wellbeing of women and families throughout the Midwest-Gascoyne and North Midlands regions.

Sandra is proudly regional and committed to being a strong voice for regional WA.

I’d like to acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land on which we meet today. I would also like to pay my respects to Elders past and present and future custodians and Elders of the nation.
