@iSams how can our school ensure equity and inclusion of same sex families if the iSams family tree only allows for a mother and father family structure? Or am I missing something? Are other schools experiencing similar challenge? #DEI #inclusion #LGBTQ #SOS #DEIJ #letsdobetter

Y6 engaged in a series of connected tasks that required deep reflection & thinking to uncover an ‘I am’ statement. Prompted brave sharing and empathetic listening. Statements really reflect context. Inspired by Sara K. Ahmed ‘Being the Change’ ❤️. #identity #pypchat Mount Scopus

This is a sad day 💔 🇦🇺 fear over compassion? "Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts." - Winston Churchill To those who campaigned for no: How do we ensure we give a voice to the under represented? How do we ensure people hear?
