Dear
Colleagues<br>
<br>
Do you think we could lobby the Victorian State Government through<br>
the TEAV to keep their election promise to build new technology wings<br>
across victoria? It seems to be an election promise that's been<br>
quickly shelved. Also does anyone know the state of victorias<br>
Technology Teacher training courses?<br>
<br>
