In 2012 the national conference will be on home turf, in Sydney, on October 3rd and 4th. Themed around Kenneth Slessor's "Five Bells", a poem dealing with time and change, the 'five bells' of English teaching at this time of change are: Time and Place, Inspiration, Questioning, Illumination and Renewal We are now calling for papers from people interested in presenting at that conference. To begin to get the feel of the event watch this promotional video made by one of our 15 year old students.
