Making the most of the school holidays and sunny weather 🌞

Absolutely spoiled by my students today. They even sung Happy Birthday very loudly mid-lesson.

Two batches of Filipino Coconut Macaroons ready for SASS Appreciation Week morning tea tomorrow. Thank you to all SASS for your incredible contribution to students, families and teachers.

Happy SASS Appreciation Week. Schools wouldn't be able to run without wonderful SASS staff.

It's the most wonderful time of the term - Wellbeing Week! No meetings and staffroom treats 😎

What a huge turn out. Thousands of public school and Catholic school teachers gave up another day’s pay to go on strike because the NSW government is refusing to listen. #MoreThanThanks #HearOurVoice

“The Premier thinks the answer is performance pay… Well let me tell you, Mr Perrottet, teachers are performing over and above the call of duty. They are just not getting paid.” @AGavrielatos #MoreThanThanks #HearOurVoice

Next Thursday I’m going on strike again with my public school and Catholic school colleagues. We are striking for our students. Teachers’ working conditions are students’ learning conditions. We need to fix the teacher shortage by addressing pay and workload. #MoreThanThanks

Every point is spot on

Folks, give it up for @aliceleung for her outstanding interview on @60Minutes. Spoke so confidently and on point. Unsustainable workloads and uncompetitive pay. Teachers deserve #MoreThanThanks

[60 Minutes Australia @60Mins]

Explaining why there’s such a shortage of teachers seems to be a simple lesson: modern classrooms are nothing like the places of chalk and talk they once were. #60Mins

Don’t forget about the quiet students and the ones who don’t need as many redirections and reminders. They still deserve to be listened to and loved.

[𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 @DrBradJohnson]

Even the best teachers who seem to have it all together still need encouragement, support,and to know they’re appreciated and the same is true for administrators too.

[Deb Hogg 📚🐨🦉🏝🌺🙏😝🇺🇦 @DebHoggoz]

Too many teachers give their whole life to their classroom… and don’t allow themselves to live and enjoy their one precious life and spend time on the other important relationships. Schools shouldn’t be run on those expectations. #MoreThanThanks

[Glenn Langford @mrglangford]

It’s Tuesday of Week 2 and I’m exhausted again already. The workload of teachers is unsustainable. So many teachers on strike tomorrow will do schoolwork to try desperately to catch up. Pay us a decent wage and give us the time we need to do the job #MoreThanThanks

[Teachers Federation @TeachersFed]

One profession. One voice. Let’s make it too loud to ignore on May 4. #MoreThanThanks

[Grant Shepherd @Grant_Shep]

How amazing (in the school holidays) is it to get 8-9 hours sleep a night instead of the usual 5-6 hours! Shouldn’t that just be a given? #MoreThanThanks

In the past week, five Australian women have been killed.⁣

All of them by men they knew.⁣

That means in the past week, five Australian men have become killers.⁣

Men’s violence isn’t just a problem somewhere else. It’s our problem.

Yet those in power remain silent.
