The end is nigh

It's been a pretty amazing year in many respects.
Beside the fact that I turned 50, have been married 25 years and been teaching at my current school for 15 years, I feel that all the things I have been working on in the last three years are coming together.
I have been to Canberra for the Standards meeting - more the development of advanced teacher capabilities. It was a heavy meeting but I am inspired by the end result and pretty amazed about the group of teachers that I worked with. Can't say too much now, but the final document is still being worked on and should be out by around March next year.
Amanda and I are about to present our ideas from the AGQTP project to our staff along with some suggestions for how to run meetings more efficiently. I hope this goes well as it looks pretty heavy.
We also presented to some of our System leaders on behalf of the Project and that seemed to go down well.
Finally, I got into the Science Summer School in January. I am looking forward to the content but am somewhat bemused with how they are going to run the rest of the show - i.e. accommodation, meals etc., and how they will treat the participants. Should be amusing. I ran into the guy helping to work out the Mathematics Summer School in Canberra and even he was a little unsure about that side of things.
Keep you posted dudes.
