Home Economics was my daughter's happy place at high school. It was a place where she felt nurtured, understood and seen. Today, aged 22, her wee cake business is booming and I couldn't be prouder 💐 it's not always just about English and Maths. It's about so much more ❤ – at Torrance, Scotland

Today marks the 13th anniversary of the National apology to the Stolen Generations. The Apology was an important step in our healing journey. Today I reflect on & remember the stolen ones in my family. They were stolen not just from kin, but culture, language, identity & country.

'Teachers are so important because, while we can resource schools with facilities, it's the skills that we as teachers have that make the most difference to student's lives.'

It is often nit acknowledged beyond each family, but a teacher’s family is often working at school. Thanks to Tony, my husband, my son and other family members who contribute to our great Public Education family.
