[Catalist] Question to Regional WA teachers...

[Leon Harris]

Rob is in Geraldton, his view is regional and takes into consideration a 
lot of practicalities such as distance and travel.

I would be careful not to be dismissive of it, just because of past 
experiences that may not be relevant in this context. Don't shut the 
dialogue down yet, Pauline needs her answer! What do others think?

Cheers,
Leon
