Lots of media today about school enrolments. Australia has one of the most segregated school systems in the world (by design). As a parent, we’ve told our kids we are a public school family. They know education is not just about them, it’s about whole of community.

Book 1 Same book...two different stories/covers...so easy to read...so captivating..they ended, though, too abruptly..they left me wanting more..Lyle's story was hysterical..both examined some of the scariest aspects of contemporary life...climate, misogyny, racism, capitalism...

Dear everyone, as we struggle with the dire consequences of libertarian/neo-Lib/small government ideology, can I ask that we stop electing governments who do not believe in governing? Thanking you in anticipation.
