Josey came to our school approximately three years ago with an aim to document our learning journey, so that our narrative could be easily conveyed to educators around the world and our local community. During this time she spent many hours with me uncovering the layers of thinking behind some of my innovations, in order to create a booklet that could be widely shared. Thanks to Josey I was able to distribute these writings to many other educators across New South Wales last year when I conducted conferences with various schools.
