Shaun Arantz

The School House Restaurant is run by Head chef Shaun Arantz (fresh from working in the UK under the famous Michelin Star winning French Chef, Jean Christophe Novelli) and Front of House Willa McDuie.

Shaun brings with him traditional French training and huge knowledge of food. After travelling extensively through Europe researching traditional cooking methods and ingredients, Shaun draws on his experience when cooking for the School House, making the most of the fabulous Orange regions produce.

Shaun (who has 10 years experience behind him, working in some of Sydney's and the UK's most successful and long standing restaurants) is joined by his partner Willa McDuie at front of house (who has also returned from the UK and has extensive experience in hospitality marketing and events, winning the coveted AHA award of 'Best Marketed Hotel in Australia' whilst working for Cargo Bar in Sydney).
