<div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;">Hi there folks,</span></div>
<div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><br>
</span></div>
<div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;">Upon returning to Victoria 16 whole years ago, following my start in teaching in Queensland, I could not have met a friendlier, more encouraging, more helpful individual than Maggie Iaquinto at VITTA PD for
Teaching Units 1-4 IT.</span></div>
<div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><br>
</span></div>
<div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;">Later on, following a number years out of teaching VCE IT, and upon getting back into it, I was glad to catch up with Maggie's smiling face again at the annual VITTA conference just a few years back. She had
not changed one bit and was just as encouraging and as interested as ever.</span></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As seems to be universally the case on this list, I count it a privilege that I had the opportunity to meet, talk with and share with such an inspiring individual.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>You will be greatly missed Maggie.</div>
