I'm back

But not with the sewing I promised....just had to show you this beautiful little tin of chocolates a colleague gave me today to celebrate my 25 years service. How gorgeous is this and how kind!

25 years!

I know I have been a bit MIA around here lately but have just jumped on to display the lovely gift I have been given today to celebrate 25 years (really 27 but who is counting) of service to Tasmanian students and teachers.

I have been very privileged to work with some lovely people over all these years and have made some lifelong friends that I would not have known otherwise(including Vicki!). I won't mention all the others as they are non-bloggers but they know how much their friendship means to me.


I was very touched by the beautiful words read out about me:

Elizabeth has given dedicated and exemplary service in the field of eLearning support since the earliest initiatives in this area in the Department. She has a well-earned reputation among teachers and colleagues across the agency for knowledge, skills and expertise in a wide range of learning technologies and importantly in being able to think outside the square to solve problems. She is totally committed to supporting teachers to use online learning to improve student learning outcomes and achieves this through respectful professional relationships based on trust. She is currently working in Curriculum Services supporting the implementation of the Australian Curriculum.


The presentations were made by the Secretary of our Department and here is my gift. I love it!

How cool is that! There were so many people there who I knew including a (second) cousin I haven't seen in years but went to high school together Oh by the way the presentations were at the beautiful Baha'i Centre of Learning.

Now I have also been working hard and doing lots of sewing so I will pop back tomorrow after I have stopped celebrating to show you everything I have been doing....promise lol.
