It’s not just students who need Maslow. Teachers need:
1) feel safe / supported
2) emotional connection/ relationships
3) feel respected
4) appreciation
5) value within the team
6) autonomy/ flexibility
7) take time for self and family

Congratulations @DebSummerhayes on your successful appointment as Deputy Secretary. Your passion for Public Education, your advocacy for our staff, students and community has never waivered and your heart for equity and excellence inspire me to action everyday!

That masking tape message was put on the back of one of our production team teachers by the student VET team. How sweet is that? 🤪💛

And just like that... Penrith Valley Performing Arts Festival is over for another year! I'm still reeling from the incredible talent of our @NSWEducation students. I'm certain I witnessed more than one rising star! Thank you to @_The_Joan staff - absolute legends! #ProudlyPublic

So sad to miss this one. Chloe and Caitlin are incredible girls and wonderful advocates for public education. Inspirational 😍

@DebSummerhayes joins us at #NOIINSW #symposium2023 to share what makes her #proud to be public - the spirit of collaboration, being agents of change, being curious about best practice, and brave enough to talk honestly about what’s not working. Proud of the difference we make.

“We are the Lyrebirds!” Principal @JacquelineLoc10 from Yandel’ora SSP. Each of our children need their own voice. Our job is to listen and to support them in being heard and to amplify their voices.

Truth before reconciliation - we need the diverse voices of our nation to be heard. No one should be silenced by vitriol and racism. https://t.co/bBbbhFH0FQ

We had the privilege of hosting @DebSummerhayes R/Dep Sec at Glenmore Park PS yesterday. Our stage 3 students shared their learning with Deb, & in true teacher style, she used her highly developed questioning technique to dig deeper and challenge their understanding. Thanks, Deb!

What a great, short, explanation of the Voice to parliament.

Little hands making clever things. Little minds problem solving together and learning from one another. I am not needed here - time for a coffee! #holidays #LEGOSpike

@MansourNatalie How many years!!?! 😂

The #interactive #Gambay map from @FirstLangAU showcases 700+ Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander languages. It has accompanying videos and teacher notes, and it's a fantastic way to help kids develop an understanding of the land they live on: https://t.co/godc5giH4Z
