😷kgold❤️💛🖤 Teachers Federation Prue Car MP Chris Minns Whilst I understand the need for budget cuts, primary schools that have Executive off class were done so because of the needs in the school. Whilst some schools over did it, the work load will now fall back on the Principal 😫

Mr Simon Mulready is one of the best … Simon leads with empathy, patience and curiosity. He arrives at school everyday with a kind heart and makes it a priority to interact with staff, students and community.

Great colleague and friend. Such a deserving award. I feel incredibly fortunate to have worked with him. Congratulations Les 👏🏼

Things I'm sick of hearing from my employees: - Can I leave early today - I'll be late in the morning - My child is sick, can I rush off - I've got a doctor's appointment tomorrow, is that okay - I'm going to be late back from lunch, I've got some things to sort I don't care.

The challenges faced by school leaders are not unique to Australia…

Honoured to recognise Robyn Evans for her exceptional leadership of the NSWPPA as President for the last 4 years. You lead with heart & always keep students at the centre. A special thank you for your work in expertly supporting principals through floods, bushfires & COVID.

i want to thank Peter Dutton for flying across the country to spend 40 mins at my birthday party, costing taxpayers $6k. oh hang on! that was for gina. not me. everything he said is a lie. dutton has adopted trump's playbook: lie & accuse everyone else of your biggest flaws.

Loved talking money and legacy to 600 NSW primary school principals today. So good to give back to our educators.

What an amazing New South Wales Primary Principals’ Association conference with the theme The Power of Legacy. Day 1 speakers included Dean Boxall, Kate McClymont and Dr Jordan Nguyen All have left a legacy in their own fields through their processes, resilience and determination. So much to reflect and learn.

The legend Simon Mulready brought the house down with a brilliant version of Bon Jovi classic ‘Livin on a prayer’ right here at our Amplify event…

Last Wednesday at the NSW Primary Principals Association Conference, Principal Mr Goh was presented with a Distinguished Service Award by the Deputy Premier and NSW Dept of Education Secretary.

This is how it went…BRILLIANTLY. Living legacies in the principalship of NSW Public Schools -THE greatest messages to take back to our schools. No greater legacy than to be a learner and a leader with colleagues. ‘sit in the shade of a tree that was planted by someone else’

Me: When a private school that banks millions of dollars a year in combined contributions from governments and parents can afford to build an $85 million hall, would you say our needs-based funding model is working? Minister: Well, I think it is. 🤷
