Hi I am Mark Kent and I am an Assistant Principal at the Distance Education Centre Victoria. I began my teaching career in 1987 as a primary school teacher and pretty much enjoyed every grade level and specialist area I’ve taught. Now I work across a P – 12 College and one of my leadership roles is the development of Skoolaborate as a Virtual Learning Environment. I am thrilled to be able to connect students with really interesting and engaging learning opportunities via a Virtual World and to provide opportunities for new communities to develop using technology.
Coming to NPAC and working with the Bamaga community is a career highlight for me and I hope we can extend this partnership to include students from other remote areas.

Hello Mark – is this the artwork that you were photographing in the class with the Principal this morning?
Yes it is and you’ll find that the content will increase over the coming days so please check the menus and links for updates.
Hi Mark 🙂
I am really pleased to hear of the developments of Skoolaboarate. It sounds like a truly rewarding experience and for you, I am sure over your wonderful career have seen so much more than the standard classroom teacher would. I can say I’m immensely honoured to know someone like yourself!
Take care,
Erzsebet
