Some highlights from the @PESA_Aus Conference so far. Conference theme is Connect. I connected with heroes like @ProfLeaWaters , champion teachers from all over the world and nature. This has easily been the best PL I’ve ever been to - 3.5 days of inspiration & fun #pesa2018
Twitter Brains Trust: any suggestions? nitter.gq/denisecooke2/status/98…
@PositiveSchool Any suggestions for a name for a group made up of socially isolated kids. We want to encourage them to get together with leaders of school to build skills. Needs to have cred and not easy to make fun of.
