We are pleased to announce that the Biennial General Meeting (BGM) will take place at the upcoming conference. During this meeting, we will step down and elect a new JATNET committee for a 2 year period. Further details about the roles and responsibilities will be shared in Term 2.
We would love to see some new people volunteer to support this fabulous community of teachers.
We are always looking for volunteers to help with the various competitions (poster, calligraphy and speech). If you are interested in contributing, please let us know. You do not need to be on the committee to help out!
