Presenter: Norm Buhagiar

Norm ’ s teaching career spans more than 30 years, beginning as a Teacher in Training in the Automotive Department at Whittlesea Secondary College, where he taught Automotive, Materials, Woodwork, Robotics and Engineering. Joining The Lakes as a Leading Teacher, he brought with him decades of technical expertise and real-world experience, along with a passion for ensuring students understood the value of manual arts across woodwork, plastics and engineering. Norm consistently encouraged students to stay open- minded, to try regardless of the final outcome, and to take pride in their effort. He believed that care, persistence and a willingness to learn are skills that set young people up for success in any pathway. His guiding message to students was simple: never let anyone tell you that you can ’ t achieve.
