Re: Certificate course @ Bankstown TAFE
A few years back I did 'School Assistant- in Science' as a follow on to Cert IV Lab Techniques, through TAFE, I am sure it was a Cert III, that was in '04.

Re: Biology models
Hi Rita, The only skull we have here is a pig, which I found in a tree actually, lol. We had quite a few feral pigs near where I live and they were hunted/baited, and gotten rid of, so someone put a skull in a tree, for me :thumbup: . It was really revolting :yuck: , mossy/mouldy and had ants living...

Re: trolleys
Not sure if this will help, but I got all the'old' TV trolleys (they are called'Tuffy' trolley)in the school.

Re: Annual Chemical Stock Take
I do my stocktake around mid year, no one has said it needs to at a particular time, so it gets done when convenient, same as other. I also send a copy to our Business Manager and HOD.
