TEACHERS’ EVENING

The Teachers’ Evening will again be held in Dunedin as at all our venues. The purpose of the special evening sessions is to give careers advisers and subject teachers a first-hand insight into the EXPOs and to facilitate a free and informative exchange between them and exhibitors.

The teachers will have the opportunity to see how the EXPO functions (without their students) and talk to you about your links with their students. This will take place from 4.00pm -7:00 pm, Monday 17 May. This operates during the late night session. It’s important that you and your stands are prepared.

To enable teachers to be better informed about your stands, please identify the school subjects to which your organization relates. If you have not let Maggie Hames, Schools Co-ordinator, know which teachers you wish to target in terms of subject, please e-mail her on mhames@aggs.school.nz by 1 April as an information sheet will be given to each teacher attending the Event.
