Field Test

Dear All,

Just a reminder about the upcoming field test presentations for next week. Please come and support your colleagues who are applying to present for ETC 2016. One of the presenters originally scheduled for Wednesday has decided not to present this year. Therefore, we will just have two presentations on Monday and Friday.

Please let me know if you can come to the sessions. I need to know the numbers so I can prepare necessary materials.

Thanks so much!

Visit from Warwick Mann

Dear all,

Brain Donn from Warwick Mann (www.warwickmann.com) will be at school on Monday and Tuesday October 26 & 27 to offer financial advice to any teacher or staff member who would like to speak to him. A list of the services offered are on the staff room notice board. The school does not promote any one company but does encourage teachers to plan for the future.
