Monique Dalli

DATTA AUS President/VIC

Victorian Secondary Teacher of Design and Technologies, Author, and Director of Professional Learning at Caroline Chisholm Catholic College.

I was recently one of the first cohort of teachers in Victoria to achieve the AITSL Lead Accreditation through the Melbourne Archdiocese Catholic Schools, I am passionate about inclusive classrooms, teaching for a designed sustainable future and mentoring.

Goals: As DATTA Australia President for 2021 I aim to support an increase of Design and Technology initial teacher education programs at universities and highlight the national teacher shortage in Design and Technologies in the media through promotion and scholarships offered through DATTA Australia.

I am currently focused on a plastic recycling program at school that takes plastic lids collected from the school community and then granulates/presses them.
