I’m beginning to think #southerncross are systemically discriminating against women. Did you know they’ll pay for skin cancer screening, but not breast? And as for this poor woman. i.stuff.co.nz/business/12343…

Pretty impressed by the view from the staffroom at Bay of Islands College ...

But then Whangaroa College has a pool out the window of the staffroom (even if they’re currently located in the food tech room, and the pool is broken). #staffroomsofaotearoa

Privileged to be able to represent Teachers@ PPTA at the formal apology for the Dawn Raids. Lovely to see education offered up as reparations alongside fine mats.

henry cooke I wonder how she feels about those champions of charter schools, the Pooles, who have welcomed non-vaxxed teachers and have been paying themselves huge profits? nzherald.co.nz/nz/auckland-sc…

Here’s to the real heroes of the weekend - those braving the elements to staff vaccination centres up and down the country. RT if you’d like to salute them rather than the vocal minority. #getboosted

RT if you're NOT going to the anti-vax protest in Wellington. Oops I mean anti-mandate.

Arrived home to find protesters had pissed on my doorstep. They keep driving past my window and honking. I am so over them restricting and impinging on my rights and freedoms.

Secondary teachers are meeting this week to decide on collective agreement claims to attract and keep teachers in schools. tinyurl.com/mr469cfh

We stand with educators around the world and the people of Ukraine and condemn Russia's act of war. tinyurl.com/2p8kzhu7

Funny thing is that when my friend's daughter was walking to school she was abused by protesters for wearing a mask. Happened on her way to school and back, 2 days. Then when she did the same walk with her big brown Dad and brother. Silence. Interesting isn't it.

Strange times doing our annual issues and organising conference by zoom, but awesome seeing so many people joining us online. Sorry we can’t share the scones. #ppta

Dolly and I would like to wish you a happy international women’s day! On my way to celebrate with #zontaclubofofwellington #IWD2022 #UNWomenAotearoaNZ

With the recent Government announcement, we have updated our advice for members focusing on testing and household contacts ppta.org.nz/advic.../covid…

So excited to be at Waiuku College presenting the Guy Allen Award for branch activism for Teachers@ PPTA to the amazing Tony Nelson. #ppta

Standing with the Waikato region of Teachers@ PPTA to #stopbullying2022

Lovely visit to Nayland College where they get their milk in bottles!

I owe #morethanthanks to NSWTF for their hospitality to Teachers@ PPTA at their annual conference. So many issues in common, not least massive retention and recruitment issues. It’s always grand to be with people who believe so strongly in public education.
