Teachers have played a critical role throughout the Covid-19 pandemic to ensure learning standards are upheld.
In a bid to acknowledge their efforts, Gembrook MP Brad Battin has launched a competition to celebrate our best local teachers.
The public is invited to nominate their favourite in an online survey, with three local prizes up for grabs for the winning teachers.
“As students return to school it’s a great opportunity to recognise the wonderful work by our dedicated teachers during the last few weeks of remote learning,” Mr Battin said.
“We have always known how valuable teachers are, and in recent weeks we have come to appreciate this more than ever.”
Participants are asked to explain why their teacher deserves recognition, with each kind messages set to be passed on directly to the school.
“Teachers play a pivotal role in our lives and help shape the people we are today, I too still appreciate the impact one teacher of mine Mr Slate from Berwick College had on me when I was a teenager,” Mr Battin added.
“It’s time to celebrate the outstanding teachers in the Casey Cardinia region.”
