[Year 12 IT Apps] Goodbye, Farewell, Adios!

[Andrew Grimshaw]

In my first year as in IT teacher I went to visit Keith, who generously gave 
me his time and shared his fantastic curriculium resources with me. Since 
then he has always provided excellent advice and support.

My students and I thank you Keith
