| Life Before Sturt | Before coming to
Sturt this year I worked as a Mathematics teacher at Frensham. It was my experience at
Adult Education Woodwork classes that inspired me to take a year's leave from my job to
expand my knowledge and skills in woodwork at the Sturt School for Wood.

| Designing and Making Philosophy | I find wood and
working with wood fascinating and rewarding. It is the transformation from raw materials
to the finished product and the beauty revealed during the process that I find exciting
and fulfilling. My major project, a Hallstand made from Jarrah reflects the fascinating
journey as well as giving me the perfect opportunity to learn and practise a wide range of
cabinet making techniques.

|||
| Life After Sturt | I will be
returning to my teaching position next year but look forward to working with wood, as a
hobby, in my workshop at home.

| Acknowledgements | Special thanks to

fun and enthusiasm.
