Frank Savino - RIP

On Saturday morning, 11th January 2025, our dear friend and former colleague, Frank Savino, passed away peacefully. Frank taught in Collinstown Park Community College for many wonderful years until his retirement in May 2010. He was a History and Outdoor Education Teacher. Frank was passionate about his subjects and shared his love for learning with his students and colleagues. His students were always happy to be in his company, whether debating historical events or participating in the great outdoors.

Frank also worked as the school’s Home School Community Liaison (HSCL)Teacher for a number of years. He supported many parents and guardians in his role as HSCL Teacher and was always warmly welcomed into every home he visited, where he built lasting connections with our students’ families.

Frank’s engaging personality, sharp mind and quick wit won the hearts of students, parents and colleagues alike.

Frank was not only a talented teacher and educator, he was equally talented on the stage and for years he delighted the audiences with his performances during many school musicals.

A few weeks ago, he visited us here in Collinstown Park Community College, arriving on his motorbike, as he did every morning during his teaching career. Frank loved his bike and the open road. During his visit, he asked after many past students and colleagues, which was typical of Frank’s visits and conversations. He made time for everyone and was interested in their lives. Every conversation with Frank was a memorable one and for those of us who had the pleasure of his company during his visit a few weeks ago, that conversation and memory will be very precious.

Frank was a wonderful teacher, friend and colleague. We are grateful for his legacy to our school and privileged to have known him. He will be forever held dearly in the memories of so many.

To his dear wife Anne and to his family, we offer our deepest sympathies.
