Roxanne Morrissey

Executive Officer

Raised and educated in Perth for schooling and university studies, Roxanne has spent most of her life in rural WA. The majority of this time was spent in remote WA, owning and running a pastoral property in the lower Murchison with her husband and four children. Through her own experiences plus interactions with other rural women, Roxanne is very familiar with the demands placed on women in agricultural businesses.

As an active member of the community Roxanne has been part of various committees and organisations. A strong belief in equity of access to rural education led to a great involvement with the Isolated Children’s Parents’ Association (ICPA) with president roles at both the state and federal levels. Roxanne has also been involved with policy and standards formation, rural representation and advocacy, agricultural producer trials and initiated numerous local workshops for rural producers.

Now residing on a property south of Harvey, Roxanne enjoys maintaining a connection to other rural women through her work with Women in Farming. Her strong belief in the importance of active communication, guides her relationship with Women in Farming members and branches.

Faith Day

Administration Assistant

Growing up travelling around Australia set the grounds to learn more about the land for Faith. Finishing high school in Northam WA as an agriculture student, Faith moved to the middle of Australia (450km east of Kalgoorlie on the Nullarbor Plain), following her heart.

Moving back to the big city, Perth, Faith settled into office administration which progressed to Chief Operation Officer within 4 years at a roofing company. Following her heart yet again, Faith moved to the Nullarbor Plains to marry her hard-working station boyfriend, build a loving home and start a family at Gunnadorah Station.

Now a mother of 3, Faith spends most of her time raising her 3 kids, teaching her eldest through Kalgoorlie School of The Air and assisting her husband Cameron, on the station when she can. On the side Faith enjoys building and renovating her home as well as re-purposing animal skulls as pieces of artwork and selling them through her little business called ‘Station Creations’.

Faith has been heavily involved with the local sporting club, The Nullarbor Muster Club Inc., having been the secretary for 6 years. She has stepped aside as her husband is the current president of the club. Since starting School of The Air, Faith has also joined other community organisations including the KalSOTA P&C as well as the Goldfields-Eyre branch of ICPA (Isolated Children’s Parents’ Association).

Having a passion for digital design and technology, Faith believes connection and communication is key when living so remotely which assists her in her role as Administration Assistant for Women in Farming.
