Donna was acknowledged by her peers for her outstanding and impactful contributions which include extended services to the ACDE and her role as QCDE President, together with the significant positions she has held for the profession at State and Federal government levels. All of this work embodies and speaks to Donna’s enduring commitment to Education and her passion for the teaching profession.

Helen’s services to Education and the teaching profession have been acknowledged in many ways. This award recognises her services to groups such as QCDE and ACDE as well as the work that she has undertaken on a number of State and Federal government bodies.
