Living by the maxim, if you can't see her, you can't be her, we thought it was time to shine the light on what some of our extraordinary staff get up to in their spare time. And this week we are putting a call out for support of an absolute hero amongst us, Amanda Hardy.

Ms Hardy has been named as one of five finalists in the EducationHQ Unsung Heroes awards. This recognises extraordinary teachers from all around Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand The winner is decided by popular vote. To get this far is remarkable from hundreds of nominations but she deserves the top spot and this is where you come in! 

Please take a few minutes, follow this link and vote for her before the end of the week. One vote per email address.https://educationhq.com/unsung-heroes-nz/unsung-heroes-teacher-vote/
