Adult Learners Week (ALW) Celebrations 2011

ALW is a great opportunity to celebrate the successes and achievements of everyone participating in Adult and Community Education (ACE). This year, it was held between 31 October and 6 November and the Northern Hub invited ACE networks to work together with us to support the events. The three networks who received sponsorship were North Shore, Waitakere and Tauranga.

Nadine Hoskins, Adult Learners Week North Shore Coordinator, reported displays at Libraries, over 3,000 posters and flyers were distributed. Coordinators took their students to Howick Historical Village which was enjoyed by all as some were new New Zealanders and it showed them what early New Zealand was like. In addition, an awards ceremony was arranged to celebrate outstanding tutors and learners.
