Suzanne Swanston honored for 40 years of service in NSW schools

Suzanne Swanston has been presented with a 40-year service recognition certificate from the NSW Department of Education. Swanston began her career at Hillvue Public School in 1975 as a teacher's aide, a role that was just being introduced in New South Wales government schools at the time.

After initially retiring in 2018, Swanston returned to the workforce because she missed the school environment. She has spent the last 18 months working at Duri Public School, where she received her service award.
