CSU graduate Kathryn Suttie has won a 2007 Australian Government Quality Schooling award. Kathryn was Highly Commended in the Excellence by a Beginning Teacher category. At the ceremony at Parliament House in Canberra, Federal Education Minister Julie Bishop said, “Today’s award winners are examples of some of the outstanding teachers in this country”. Kathryn, who studied Bachelor of Human Movement/Bachelor of Teaching (Secondary) and now teaches PE and dance at Wagga Wagga High School (WWHS), said she “is very, very honoured. I trained as a PE teacher but I always wanted to teach dance. Dance is my passion. Here at WWHS we now have two dance ensembles, we have doubled the numbers in elective dance, and we are running HSC dance. CSU was a great university to attend. The experience that I gained as a teacher was excellent, and I owe it to them for my achievements at WWHS in some ways”.
