My mother Marcelle and I went to the University of New England and got Batchelor of Education degrees together. I then got a Graduate Diploma in Primary Education and she did a Graduate Diploma in Religious Education.
This is my latest
PhotoHunt entry.

Graduation hats - very cool! And how wonderful that your mom and you got degrees together. Happy weekend.
Oh my goodness, I did a social science degree from there and my MBA externally. My brother and two sisters also went to the same uni. I was born in Tamworth just an hour from Armidale. Its a small world Leslie. My mum also went to teachers college there (it is now called soemthing else) and then did a degree later in life at the ANU. How wonderful graduating together. Great memory!! I really like the photo and design and the words too!
What a wonderful shot Leslie, to graduate with your mother. No mortar boards for us on graduation sadly....
I remember those hats. I could never get them to fit right! It's cool that you & your mom graduated together.
That hat is really one you can be proud of. Way to go! happy weekend!
Those are some hats that would make anyone proud. Nice one there Leslie. :)

Mortar boards, they qualify as hats and what a wonderful occasion for you both.
Happy weekend Leslie.
What great memories those must be. Wonderful choice for the theme. :)
a very nice reminder of many years of sweat and burning eyebrows to earn an education degree! Very lovely interpretation!

JyLnC - Hats
what an amazing story! such a great tandem of fellow educators =] i'm sure those graduation caps you wore (and tossed after?) are arguably more valuable than any tiara =]
I love this contribution to this week's PhotoHunt theme! That had to be a special experience with your mother. And congratulations to her for going back to school and getting her degree. I can relate because I finally got my bachelor's degree at the age of 44 from Purdue University. Great image.
By the way, over at my blog I'm starting a new photo-meme for Sundays based on my Sunday Scenery posts. The details can be found on the Sunday Scenery Photo Meme page on my blog. I hope you'll consider joining the fun.
classical and the hat of wisdom
A mortar board!!! Now THAT is hat of distinction.
I'm not a hat person, but I found 'hats' around our home that will work for the hunt. Come on over if you can. I would love to have your company.
g'day, and it is good to be back in the hunt....
What a great shot and so wonderful that you and your mother got your degrees together.

No hat feels better to put on your head than that kind! Great job to you and your Mom.
