Acknowledgment

The 2022-2023 CLTASA Committee would like to express our sincere appreciation for the invaluable contributions made by former CLTASA Committee members.

Since its establishment in 1986, the Association has seen remarkable growth, thanks to the dedicated efforts of Chinese teachers, educators, and CLTASA Committee members. Over the past 36 years, their contributions have significantly impacted the development of the Association, the Committee, and the promotion of the Chinese language and culture in South Australia. We are grateful for the seniors and previous CLTASA Committee members who have worked tirelessly to shape and advance the Association, and their contributions will always be remembered.

Congratulations, and Thanks!

2022年9月19日,由于Kathy Purvis在中文教师协会理事会的贡献,中文教师协会理事会起草并向Educators SA提名Kathy Purvis两个奖项。在2022年10月28日,由Educators SA主办的World Teachers' Day 2022颁奖典礼上,Kathy Purvis荣获得以下奖项。

On September 19, 2022, the CLTASA Committee nominated Kathy Purvis for Educators SA to recognize her exceptional contributions to the association over the past decade. As a result, Kathy Purvis was honored with two awards at the 2022 World Teachers' Day Gala hosted by Educators SA on October 28, 2022.

  • Chinese Language Teachers' Association of SA: Outstanding Service Award 

  • World Education Forum Awards: Outstanding Contribution to Intercultural and Global Understanding Award 2022 (The latter award comes with a prize of $2,000 from the World Education Forum.)

 

根据《澳大利亚中文教师联会25周年纪念册》,Kathy Purvis在2008年加入中文教师协会理事会,并在2017-2019年与靳丽华老师共同担任两届联席中文教师协会会长。Kathy Purvis在过去的14年里一直在为中文教师协会无私奉献。

According to the "25th Anniversary Book of the Australian Chinese Teachers Association", Kathy Purvis joined the CLTASA Committee in 2008, and served as the joint president for two consecutive terms from 2017-2018 and 2018-2019. She dedicated 14 years to the CLTASA before tendering her resignation as a member of the Committee on October 21, 2022.

 

在我们为Kathy Purvis感到由衷地高兴的同时,我们中文教师协会理事会很遗憾地宣布Kathy Purvis在2022年10月21日辞去中文教师协会理事会成员职务。我们再一次祝贺Kathy Purvis荣获殊荣,也再一次感谢Kathy Purvis对于我们的中文教师队伍作出的巨大贡献!

We would like to extend our warmest congratulations to Kathy Purvis for receiving these prestigious awards, and express our heartfelt gratitude for her invaluable contributions to the CLTASA. Despite her resignation, Kathy's legacy and impact will continue to inspire and shape the future of the Association.
