[Comment From Mr. Ian Lang,
Marsden State High School ]
Dear Yoko
In reference to the recent videoconference, I am pleased to report that our students were very excited after the linkup. Unfortunately I was not able to be present for the conference as I had other duties to perform on that day; but the students who were present and the teachers who took part both reported that it was a great success.
I am sure that we would like to take part in such a conference again; perhaps in March or April 1999.
As you may know our school year has finished and will not resume until February 1999. I look forward to hearing from you then.
Kindest regards
Ian Lang
Marsden State High School
