Holidays!

Hi all

Just wanting to wish everyone a happy holidays and to congratulate you all on your 301 year. I think the Chained Lady catalogue at the beginning of the year was a masterful effort and I am extremely proud of you all for providing Tessa and the artists with an exquisite publication. Great work also in developing your individual research. I feel confident that you'll hit the ground running next year and take on 401 with ease. On that note... Luke Wood is the new fulltime lecturer in Graphic Design. This is great news for the studio and for the school. Luke and I will be working together over the summer on the curriculum for next year, which for you will be a year of self directed research. I recommend that over the summer break you take time to have a plan for your first term. You'll be asked to draft a teaching and learning agreement that will work as a proposal for your research. I'm back in the second semester and am excited to see where your individual practices will be heading at that stage.

Anyway... enough from me... hope you have a great Christmas and if you're around Lyttelton on new years eve come and catch the Grand Saloon at El Santo.
