was a session in Mildura. Attendance was not huge but surely it is much more
cost effective as well as far more equitable to send one presenter here rather
than expect teachers in Mildura to travel a minimum of 3 1/2 hrs (each
way) to attend a session (which is not the one in our region).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

geographically large and it is acknowledged that attendance will be more
