Congratulations @TraceySpicer on the Brisbane launch of your book Man-Made. I can’t wait to read it.

I posted yesterday about a cat saved from the rubble in Turkey who refused to leave his rescuer's side.

The rescuer's name is Ali Cakas and he adopted the cat, naming him Enkaz - "rubble" in Turkish.

May they have a happy life together!

Thanks to all the amazing independent schools for taking part in this research and sharing their results. With my QIS Parents Network Chair hat on I also thank those schools that focussed on parent engagement.

Over 90 independent school educators joined today’s ISQ Research in Schools Showcase event. Prof Geoff Abbott QUT said research projects “have heart in the game”. School leaders & teachers heard from fellow schools, who shared insights & outcomes of school-based research.
