Internet News December 2011

 This is the latest list of news items about CE on the internet over thew past few weeks. Again, it is mostly about fund raising events and nothing really substantial.

I am amazed how month by month the same, predominant image of CE is persistently confirmed, item by item, in the (largely English-speaking)media.

'What is this CE?' asks the little green man from Mars.

'It is something that that continually raises money to keep itself going,' answer the media.

'Is that what the world's peoples find really interesting?' asks the little green man.

'No,' say the media, 'one day we will simply stop mentioning it and find something else more exciting to report.'

Keep up the good work, Gill, to help us better see the wider public face of CE...

Please keep on publishing these lists Gill. I always check them through to see which alerts did not come my way.

It is a great way to keep up with what is happening in Conductive Education throughout the world.

Thank you for your dedication to the cause!
