I might be biased but schools in Leppington are home to the best teachers in our state. This was put on full display as John Edmondson High School in Horningsea Park hosted the Glenfield Principal Network Awards. While I congratulate all the winners and nominees, I would like to pay special thanks to the winners from my neck of the woods. Four of John Edmondson's teachers were honoured for their dedication to delivering a world-class education to our kids. Chris Griffiths won an award for Classroom Teacher; Alex Teuma was successful in the Early Career Teacher category; the Executive Teacher Award was given to Kimmy Tran and Reagan Farrell won an award for her administration. Our State's amazing teachers and education staff deserve our thanks and appreciation for the important work they do with the next generation. As a parent with two children in the public system, it's reassuring to see schools and staff like John Edmondson justly rewarded.
