A Melbourne high school teacher, who recorded himself engaging in a sexual act with a female student while watching Aladdin, continues to receive unwavering support from his wife.

Troy Ollis, a former educator at MacKillop College Werribee, appeared in Melbourne County Court on Friday. The 34-year-old has admitted to several sex crimes, including the creation and possession of child abuse material.

The ex-Catholic school teacher’s criminal activities came to light following his arrest at Melbourne Airport in January of this year, revealing him as a child sex offender.

Residing in Geelong, Ollis involved his victim in his criminal acts, capturing over a dozen instances on film and in photographs where he sexually abused the minor.

The court was informed that Ollis violated the victim in various locations, including hotels, his family home, and his car, during protracted episodes while the girl’s parents believed she was at work.

Additionally, the court was told that Ollis recorded himself with the girl while the film Aladdin played in the background.

The teacher also discussed the girl’s ‘younger sister’ with his victim while stating he was not going to leave his wife for her.

Prosecutor Deanna Caruso previously told the court Ollis got his hooks into the victim after ‘grooming’ her with more than 200 emails in which he praised the child as a ‘promising student.’

‘The offender engaged in grooming behaviour by complimenting her maturity, writing style and work ethic through email,’ Prosecutor Caruso told the court.

Prosecutor Caruso said Ollis ‘manipulated’ the victim so he ‘got what he needed’.

‘Which was a young person who was compliant… who would adore him,’ Prosecutor Caruso said.

Ollis then purchased the girl a secret phone so he could covertly communicate with his victim after her father applied strict parental control settings on his daughter’s regular phone.

The pair also communicated via ‘secret email addresses’ and used ‘self-destruct’ apps, the court was told.

Australian Border Force officers caught Ollis with child abuse material at the airport on January 14 after officials examined his phone and discovered 140 child abuse material files.

The teacher had just flown home from a holiday in Tanzania with his wife and four-year-old son.

Many of the child abuse photos and videos investigators found on Ollis’s phone depicted the student.

Police also discovered other child abuse material, some of which depicted children believed to be as young as three years old.

In a twisted revelation, Ollis also sent one of the student sex videos to a WhatsApp chat accompanied by the message: ‘He he I have a lot of videos and photos with this girl. She loved being on camera with my d***’.

Police also discovered vile written child abuse material on Ollis’ phone with a note titled ‘Daily Routine’.

The material included a written remark instructing a female student to perform vile acts, including: ‘wake up, play with your c*** for 15 minutes, send master a good morning text and picture… get ready for school’.

Ollis, who pleaded guilty to seven counts of sexual penetration of a child aged 16 or 17 years under care, supervision, or authority, was represented by top criminal barrister Belinda Franjic.

Ms Franjic previously told the court her client’s relationship with the victim started as an ‘appropriate’ teacher-student connection but ‘evolved’ over time.

‘It’s the way the victim made him feel that led him to transgressing these boundaries,’ Ms Franjic told the court.

Ms Franjic also submitted Ollis did not ‘target’ or ‘deliberately groom’ the victim while conceding her client ‘should have known better’ than to start a relationship with a student.

Prosecutor Caruso said it Ollis’ was violating the child to fuel his own ‘fantasies’. 

‘He had an attraction to the victim, he had an attraction to females of that age,’ she said.

Experienced County Court sex crimes adjudicator Judge Paul Higham said ‘no teacher can stay within the post feeling sexually attracted to their pupils’.

‘Had it happened between adults it would have been body positive, sex positive I would have described it, but this happened with a child,’ Judge Higham said.

Judge Higham also described Ollis’ conduct as ‘deranged offending’. 

Ollis, who was supported in court by his parents, was remanded into custody to be sentenced on January 27.
