Trevor Wigney Award

Last year I wrote to you all to say how honoured I was to be the first New Zealand recipient of the Trevor Wigney Award.

At the conference dinner in Christchurch Chris Klaassen asked me to pay tribute to Debbie Cook which was a real privilege. I hadn’t realised he planned to very kindly mention last year’s Trevor Wigney Award as he said a number of the New Zealand Chapter members had  been unable to attend the Melbourne Conference. I was overwhelmed at the dinner. Thank you Chris for your generous words and to you all for your support and encouragement. I continue to be very humbled by the award and am extremely grateful to you all.

We are in a wonderful profession working in schools and universities. The sharing and gaining of such valuable knowledge is very important as we strive to make a difference for so many young lives in our institutions. Thank you so very much. I continue to learn and to be inspired by you all.
