Today is World Teacher’s Day in NSW. I am a proud graduate of public school education and was thrilled to go back to Kadina High and Goonellabah Public School, Lismore in 2018. I consider public education one basic measure of the responsibility any country has to its next generation, and a non negotiable for any country genuinely committed to social mobility. Public education is chronically underfunded in Australia and that must be fixed. We are all freee to choose however every Aussie kid should have access to world class, free education irrespective of economic means or postcode. I also consider teaching one of the most important professions for any society committed to investing in its own future. Teachers have a huge influence on us all and the profession should always be one of the most sought after, and paid accordingly. Invest in our schools and our kids. @NSWEducation

Heartfelt congratulations for Mr C following on from the fabulous ceremony attended by @dizdarm @pruecar in recognition of Perry’s 50 years of service to students in NSW. He still has important work to do at MFHS in 2024 in inspiring future teachers 😉@_iEndo @DebSummerhayes
The celebration of Perry Celestino’s 50 yrs of service to NSW Public Schools is now complete with presentation of his certificate in front of a school audience. The standing ovation from students, parents and colleagues was great recognition of the love & respect he has from all

Thanks for your support of our Future Teachers Club @dizdarm We were inspired today by your journey in education and proud to demonstrate our passion for future careers in public education.
We’re growing our next generation of teachers with the help of the Future Teachers Club at Macquarie @fields_high. I met some of our students who are in the club today while they were teaching at Macquarie Fields PS. Outstanding partnership between the two neighbouring schools!

Hi loves PLEASE RT This is a brilliant, non-threatening, non judgmental video aimed at “good-spirited, fair-minded people” who are confused by the conflicting messages re The Voice It’s by my dear friend Shelley Reys, a Djiriibul woman and one of the architects of Reconciliation It’s clear, fair, reasonable and, yes, detailed Let’s try and clear up the misconceptions and confusion ❤️🥰🙏 Magda to parliament youtu.be/Nla61MfEtiY via @YouTube
