Farewell to C182

A class of students I’ve been counselor and mentor since April 2007 will be graduating in a few months’ time. The staff did an informal Seniors’ Farewell event yesterday morning in school, where my colleagues did several industry prep talks and myself a Further Education: Universities talk followed by a presentation of testimonials and finally lunch.

I’ll miss this bunch: they were my first group of students I saw from start to end over three years, and while I’ll be receiving my next group of counselees and students to ‘look after’ for another three years next month, firsts in this sort of thing is always very special. So – here we go with the picture (several persons arrived late or were overseas):
