DVD Presentation and Thank You

On the evening of Thursday 21 February e-learning Porirua held a DVD presentation of the Step Up DVD.  This event was also a 'thank you' to those who had been interviewed for the filming of this DVD.  It was wonderful to see the Burmese family, Marshall Solomon and Faye Oliver, and be able to thank them for sharing their stories on camera.  Thank you too to Barbara Craig from 2020 Communications Trust for presenting the DVDs.

Course 50 Starts

Course 50 started on 5 February

It is wonderful to see the enthusiasm with a new group of students.  Nearly everyone is nervous to start with, but very quickly they realise they can do it and that we are all there to help each other learn.  Students are already commenting on how much they have learned and how they can't wait to learn more next week!  As a teacher it is a privilege to be part of such a positive learning environment.  I look forward to the graduation on Wednesday 10 April when we will really celebrate student achievement.
