SHEPHERD<br />
FAMILY AND COMMUNITY<br />
In life we come by many people who help us, inspire us and<br />
teach us. I was very lucky to attend Iona Presentation College<br />
where I made friends for life and teachers who instilled<br />
valuable lessons in me. One teacher that helped me and<br />
inspired me was Mrs Shepherd, my teacher for ‘Family and<br />
Community’ studies. I remember always looking forward<br />
to going to Family and Community to learn and discover<br />
something new. Through her positive personality she created<br />
a safe and welcoming learning environment that catered to<br />
diverse learning styles, where everyone felt safe to share and<br />
express ideas.<br />
Mrs Shepherd was a lovely teacher and an amazing person.<br />
I hope one day that I can be half the person she is. I would<br />
like to thank her and Iona for everything that they have given<br />
me as I would not have developed into the individual I am<br />
without them. I have learnt so much and became a part of a<br />
community where I am inspired to make a difference.<br />
I will never forget my time at Iona; it has helped shaped the<br />
person I am today.<br />
