Aquaculture conference in Tasmania

Hello Jean
I am writing to both thank you and compliment you regarding the recent international aquaculture events in Tasmania.

I’d like to thank you for assisting Joe Coco to attend the AquaEd Workshop in Launceston. Joe is a vital part of the aquaculture educators network in Australia. He gave a couple of excellent presentations – one in particular detailing challenging (and impressively successful) training with indigenous students. Joe is popular and highly respected in the seafood industry and training circles, and I believe that the AquaEd Workshop would have been far the poorer without his manifold important, inspirational and interesting contributions.

I’d also like to compliment you, Djarragun College and Joe on the conduct of the two students – Craig and Grayson - who accompanied Joe during the two events. The daily activities throughout the events were often highly technical, frequently long and occasionally probably boring for those two young men. At all times, however, Grayson and Craig conducted themselves in an absolutely exemplary manner, which I know (from private comments during the events) was noticed and noted by many influential people from industry and educational organisations from all over Australia. They were very, very good ambassadors for Djarragun College.

So thank you Jean, and my compliments to you on your excellent work.

Yours sincerely,
Peter Preece
Aquaculture Coordinator
TAFE SA Urrbrae Campus

    Peter has said it all - totally agree with all of his comments re Joe, Craig and Grayson.
    The Aquaculture Conference and meetings would have been much poorer without this involvement so your decision to make this happen is much appreciated.
