Mr Wood was nominated by Cameron in his class. Cameron’s mother saw the advertisement for the competition then she told Cameron. So Cameron entered his teacher Mr Wood in the most inspiring teacher award for 2015 to see if he could win some amazing prizes for Mr Wood; and because he believed Mr Wood was a special teacher who had helped him.
Most of the class practically helped vote for Mr Wood. Cameron showed his skill at persuasion and was always encouraging others to vote for Mr Wood and to leave reasons why. Within the first day three quarters of our class had voted for Mr Wood.
We got near about 101 votes! It was really cool when Mr Wood told us that he had won second place. Cameron as well as the whole class was so happy when we found out. It was a proud day for Room 12 at Otonga Primary School Rotorua. Mr Wood and the school won lots of prizes and classroom stationery from The Warehouse Stationery.
Congratulations Mr Wood!
