trip to Goodooga

Took a trip to Goodooga to test out the Youth Services Toolkit on behalf of the various NSW departments that asked me to write it. It was a long drive and, as expected, I learnt a whole lot more than I taught. Students at Brewarrina and Goodooga all seemed to get a lot from what I had to offer. That said, there were a few glitches that meant that my time was only effective for about a third of the time I was out there. While I have learnt to expect this, it is still frustrating to drive all that way to have people not show up. Those that I did meet, though, amazed me with their passion for their communities and their eagerness to learn.
