Female private school teacher charged with grooming and raping male student

A female teacher who worked at a prestigious Sydney private school has been charged with grooming and raping a male student.

Deandra Kontou, 32, who taught at $48,000/year all-boys school Newington College in 2018 and 2019, was arrested in Sutherland last week after police recommenced an investigation into her in 2025.

She was charged with nine offences, including aggravated sexual assault of a victim under authority of the offender, aggravated sexually touching, and using a carriage service to groom a person under 16 years old for sex, Nine.com.au reported. Aggravated sexual assault is an offence equivalent to rape under NSW law.

Kontou was then granted bail after facing Sutherland Local Court on Wednesday, with conditions requiring her to surrender her passport, not go within 500 metres of international points of departure, and report to police daily.

She is also banned from entering the ground of any school, must not engage in teaching activities that require contact with children, and must not be in the company of children without a parent, guardian or responsible adult present.

Kontou was newly married when she took up a position at the school, the Daily Mail reported, and in 2018 was praised by her personal trainer for losing weight ahead of her wedding.

“Being a busy school teacher with growing life responsibilities, Deandra is to be commended on her consistent attendance to personal training and sessions on her own,” the trainer wrote in one post.

In another post he commended her for sticking to her gym routine while having “a busy work life as a school teacher and after-hours tutor”.

In May a male music teacher who was employed part-time at Newington College was terminated after being charged with grooming a 14-year-old girl online. Police said at the time that no students from the school were linked to the allegations.

Newington College said it was unable to comment on the allegations against Kontou as the matter is still before the courts.

Kontou will face Burwood Local Court on November 26.

A year passed so fast. Always be Happy.

Do u believe that u do not have luck in life?

Murrowping — Thu, 23 Jul 2026 15:10:51 +0800

There is an old saying especially by the older generation to younger generation that We do not have much luck in our life. It is destined that we will fail when we do investment or do business or even betting. The saying is like our 'path' of life is already written down that we need to work hard, and we do not have 'luck' in something that bring us more money or easy money.

Do you believe it's true? Do you think you are destined to work and work and work for the rest of your life, while your friend who work less but invest more turns out to be 2-3 times richer than you?

What do you think?

Why cant England win any major tournament?

Murrowping — Sat, 18 Jul 2026 09:53:20 +0800

England has not won anything since 1966. England has not won the EURO cup, even greece did. England also never won any semi final fifa before. Closest is this year and 2018.

Is it true that england players are overrated and less talented than spain or france? Only their media is great. Or is the manager very poor and bad? No English manager has won the premier league. Only foreign managers.

What do you think about football situation in england?

Pregnant Rohingya Question Why Msian Pay Less

Pregnant Rohingya Woman Questions Why M’sians Pay Less While She Is Charged Extra At Govt Clinic

A nurse at a government clinic has received praise online after she allegedly stood her ground during a payment dispute involving a pregnant Rohingya woman.
The incident was shared on Threads by user @mummydira8, who said her aunt witnessed the exchange while attending a pregnancy check-up at the clinic.

According to the OP, the Rohingya woman had gone to the clinic to open her maternal health record, commonly known as a “Buku Pink”.

Claimed she had no money for the deposit
Before the woman could enter, a nurse allegedly informed her that she was required to pay a RM30 deposit.

“To enter, you need to pay a RM30 deposit,” the nurse reportedly told her.

However, the woman allegedly replied: “I don’t have any money.”

The nurse then firmly told her that payment was still required despite it being a government clinic.

“If you don’t have money, go home or go to a private clinic. You still need to pay here,” the nurse allegedly said.

According to the OP, the woman became upset but later took out her debit card and paid the RM30 deposit.

The OP’s aunt reportedly reacted with surprise after seeing the woman produce a bank card despite initially claiming that she had no money.

Questioned why she needed to pay again
The OP claimed that another disagreement broke out shortly afterwards when the woman was told that an additional payment was required for a baby scan.

“You paid a RM30 deposit earlier. You still need to pay separately for the baby scan,” the nurse reportedly explained.

The woman allegedly questioned why she had to pay again and pointed towards Malaysian patients at the clinic.

“Why do I need to pay? I already paid earlier. These people did not pay either,” she allegedly said.

The nurse then raised her voice and replied: “Do you remember that you are not Malaysian? Pay now. You cannot enter for the scan without paying.”

Male nurse stepped in
As the argument reportedly grew louder, a male nurse came out and intervened.

“What is the problem? If you want to enter, pay. If you don’t want to, go home. This is a clinic for mothers and children, so you cannot make noise here,” he allegedly told the woman.

The OP claimed that the woman eventually left the clinic following the confrontation.

Netizens praised nurses for being firm
The Threads post gained around 119,000 views, 3,500 likes and more than 300 reposts at the time of writing.

One commenter wrote that firm nurses were sometimes needed to handle difficult situations, while another suggested that patients should be asked to make full payment before receiving consultations or services.

I Left My Office Job In M’sia To Work In Australia

Murrowping — Mon, 13 Jul 2026 08:21:09 +0800

Credit to weirdkaya and Devika SOURCE

For many Malaysians, leaving a stable office job to pick fruits overseas may sound like a step backwards. But for Devika, it became the very thing that pushed her forward.

At 28, Devika had already built a promising career. A Public Relations graduate from SEGi University Kota Damansara, she started her career in PR agencies and later joined the corporate world as a Senior PR Executive.

But somewhere between work trips and routine, Devika began wondering if there was more waiting for her outside Malaysia.

Leaving the office life behind
The idea of working abroad had been planted by her mother when she was younger, but for years, it stayed as a “one day” dream.

That changed in June 2023 when Devika was sent on a work trip to Sabah and Sarawak. It was her first time flying alone, and by the end of it, something shifted.

I felt fulfilled, content and proud that I could handle myself in unfamiliar places.”

That confidence led her to solo trips in Langkawi, then Da Nang and Hoi An in Vietnam, where she met an American traveller who was working while travelling.

Once she returned home, Devika searched for similar opportunities and came across Australia’s Work and Holiday Visa. She then applied for one and had it approved on Aug 13, 2024.

While her immediate family supported her, Devika admitted she was hesitant to tell her extended family, especially given the fact her plan involved regional farm work.

“Some questioned why I’d trade a desk job for fruit picking, but my parents never held me back and I received their blessings to go ahead,” she said.

Devika flew to Perth on Dec 26, 2024, and checked into a backpackers’ hostel. Although Australia is an English-speaking country, she had never lived abroad before and had a rather tough time settling in.

“The following days were spent opening accounts, figuring out public transport, looking for work and asking strangers for information.

“I got onto wrong buses, moved between accommodations and was unemployed for about two months. Still, I was determined to make it work as I owed it to myself to try hard and succeed,” she said.

Picking raspberries and herself back up
After weeks of applying for farm jobs, Devika landed a raspberry picking job in Coffs Harbour, New South Wales, in March 2025. She was relieved because completing regional work meant she could apply for a second year in Australia.

At first, she saw the job as something she had to get over with. Instead, it became the experience that made her not want to leave.

“I lived in a sharehouse with 11 backpackers from Italy, France, Taiwan, Japan, India and Indonesia. Together, we celebrated birthdays, cooked meals, played games, went on drives, spotted kangaroos and became like family.

It was a new kind of happiness I had never felt. Every day felt like a never ending holiday,” she said.

Financially, Devika said the move was worth it, but only because she was willing to take chances. Apart from raspberry picking, she also worked as a dishwasher, waitress and an all-rounder at a shop selling dresses.

She later discovered “work for accommodation”, where lodging is provided in exchange for help with tasks like cleaning, cooking or house sitting. Devika now lives with her employer while working at the dress shop, handling supplier communication, stock purchases and salary matters.

With these jobs, she has more than doubled her previous corporate salary while eliminating rental costs altogether.

What she would tell other Malaysians
Looking back, Devika said Australia changed her physically, mentally and emotionally.

She lost 10kg, became more active, learned to cook with fresher ingredients, and gained more confidence communicating with people from different backgrounds.

More importantly, the experience taught her that real life skills often come from being thrown into uncomfortable situations.

For Malaysians hoping to apply for the same working visa, Devika said financial preparation is important and advised applicants to build a network as many opportunities come through people rather than job ads. She added that while Malaysians often place more value on desk jobs, many blue collar jobs in Australia can offer good pay and flexibility.

For now, Australia remains her base for work and future travels, while Malaysia remains home for family, friends and food she says cannot be replaced anywhere else.
