Thank you @MrKRudd for speaking to the Chairman of Pfizer to secure an earlier delivery of vaccines. Staggered the vaccination of Australians was apparently not important enough to warrant a call from @ScottMorrisonMP or @GregHuntMP to the Pfizer boss.

If QAnon people are “excited” about your election and you invite them to parliament and you keep communicating with them and you hire them to work in your household, you don’t get to be “offended” when people think you’re facilitating QAnon. Because you are. #4corners #QAnonPM

Term 2 starts in NSW tomorrow. I think we should all take a moment to say thank you to all the teachers and carers. You are all going above and beyond to make sure our kids continue their learning no matter what. You guys are the rockstars right now #teachersrock

Love seeing all the #teachersrock videos tonight. We know this term is going to be tough, but our teachers have shown us they are resilient, creative and committed to all their students.

Love seeing the #teachersrock hashtag starting to trend. I have a number of teachers who really influenced who I am today. They ignited a love of learning and remain friends today. Teachers truly make a difference. Thank you teachers! You rock!
Over the last several weeks I’ve been amazed by the resilience, professionalism and care shown by my daughter’s teachers. Well in NSW tomorrow it starts all over again. Bring on term 2! #TeachersRock

#insiders First package today is a compilation of news items bashing teachers who, only a few weeks ago, were heroically redesigning for remote, face to face and blended learning.Making teachers a political tool in this climate is both immoral and unethical. #IsoHolidays end now

We may have flattened the curve here in Oz, but COVID-19 is far from over, and it is NOT party time yet!

I believe I’ve coined a new term : to “Ardern Up” - meaning to show strength, decency, compassion and true leadership. Aus politicians, you really need to “Ardern Up” #Auspol #AusVotes2019

What does collaborative professional learning look, feel and sound like? Co-operation and collaboration are not the same. @AlmaHarris1 @MichelleSJones1 @acelaustralia #leadingeducationalreform

Bullying in the workplace is such an insidious destructive factor and has such a negative impact on staff and their families.

“The teachers in our most disadvantaged schools are at least as good as those in our most advantaged schools: the issue is not their competence, skill or commitment. The issue is that their number, resources and support are unequal to the task.” news.nswtf.org.au/blog/presi…

Interesting - some “colleagues” cannot afford to help others; some chose not to do so. We always have a choice but I find the blaming “I don’t help because others should” an excuse that I don’t like much.It was the excuse I heard a lot when colleagues did not help @igiveagonski
