7HOFM finds Hobart’s favourite teacher

For the last 4 weeks, 101.7 7HOFM has been running their ‘Apple for the Teacher’ competition which encouraged the people of Hobart to nominate and vote for their favourite primary school teacher. 

Over 225 online nominations were received from Hobart and surrounds and over 151,000 votes were recieved in total, around three quarters of the population of Hobart.
7HOFM was overwhelmed with the response of Hobart students, parents and members of the general community in acknowledging one of Australia’s toughest and most important jobs.

The teacher who received the most votes was Leeanne Clifford from Lauderdale Primary School, taking home an Apple ipad for herself, plus one for her school thanks to Cripps Masterloaf. 

7HOFM’s ‘Apple for the Teacher’ also provided great motivation and incentive for children to get involved with every student in Leeanne’s class also receiving an Apple iPod each.

Leeanne and her class were awarded with a presentation from 7HOFM breakfast hosts Mick and Jane at Lauderdale Primary School this morning.
