When I enrolled for the beginner computer course I remember being a little nervous walking into the classroom for the first time after more
than 35 years. As time went by I began to enjoy my computer sessions. This is my presentation of what I have learnt and my way of thanking those who made it possible.

14. Our Class
These are some of the students, with Marie, our course trainer on the right.

15. Thank you
To the PNH centre. We asked for an extension of our course. It was extended, not once, but twice. Thank you.
To Marie. The fact that we asked for two extensions is proof of how good she is and how much we enjoyed her course. A huge Thank you for inspiring us to learn as much as we did.
To my boss at work, for supporting me right from day 1. Over the past four months he has made every effort to change my rostered days off, so that I could attend my courses. I couldn’t have done any of this without his help and co-operation. Thank you Ben.
