Today is World Teachers Day. Take a moment to acknowledge those wonderful people who opened up the world for you.

I want to acknowledge and thank:

Mrs Clendinnen - who gave me a book instead of a diagnoses to calm me down.

Mr Scott - who expected nothing less than excellence

Mr Forman - who taught me more maths in two terms than I had previously been taught in four years.

Mr Turner - who put up with me for four years, made me love science so much in grade nine that I beat the science nerds to the science prize, and never gave up the hope that I might achieve something in Chemistry.

Ms Adams - who pushed me and pushed me in history and English and made me read 1984 when everyone else was reading Animal Farm.

Ms Myers - who made me love Ancient History

and Mrs Bateman - who never actually taught me, but gave me so many opportunities at school.
