The DipEd is a postgraduate course. I earned a Bachelor of Arts first but opted to graduate without any ceremony, this time I wanted to wear the robes!! I am thinking of starting a Masters sometime soon in Health Education with a focus of High School Education, Sex Education, Drug Education etc. Have to narrow that down a bit ;) .... and then I think you get to wear the hat!! or is that for a doctorate? don't know. From what the TV tells me Americans get to wear the hats no matter what the degree?Maureenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10978319002478511193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3572095228809360173.post-56383481195959703892010-12-24T22:08:55.142+08:002010-12-24T22:08:55.142+08:00I was wondering where your hat was.

A lot of kids even have Kindergarten graduation (which I think is ridiculous) and they wear little hats and robes too. We get different colored tassels and sashes with higher level degrees. <br><br>Anyway, belated congrats on a great achievement:)AngryBakerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17353130759155569342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3572095228809360173.post-33903098494731106522010-12-28T15:53:07.237+08:002010-12-28T15:53:07.237+08:00Canaan had a Kindergarten graduation this year but...Canaan had a Kindergarten graduation this year but there were no robes. Instead there was a rose arch, golden crowns and lots of organic food. He had just spent 3 years in Kindergarten so the graduation seemed to make a bit more sense in that scenario! But yeah, that's because it's a Steiner school, the mainstream schools don't do that here. <br><br>Thanks for the congrats :) I am so glad I did it... there were times when I considered just leaving it unfinished but this feels so much better.Maureenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10978319002478511193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3572095228809360173.post-90721829758222878952011-01-13T21:35:35.659+08:002011-01-13T21:35:35.659+08:00hey! our government, mainstream kindy had a gradua...hey! our government, mainstream kindy had a graduation!
