@aliceleung Ask your local member where they send their kids to school. I think a few of them might be supporters of private education.

The government cannot afford to educate every child in the country. Private schools take the pressure off the budget.

@Isobel_edu @CanberraMaths Isobel - glad you got a copy. Do you want Books 1-3? (Silly question - of course you do…). Let me know and I will get copies to you and other 4th years.
