Kia ora Tessa
We're flying towards the end of the year! It's that exciting time when refreshing plans can be made for the year ahead, but there are still plenty of opportunities to make the most of in 2018.
This month's newsletter has both bases covered, with online professional learning registrations open for 2019, and some excellent resources ready for you to dive into now (Hint: you won't want to miss the uLearn18 keynote videos!).
