ICPA Federal Council

As we all get excited for Christmas and look forward to a visit from Santa🎅, ICPA (Aust) have prepared our own Christmas wish list. Wouldn't it be wonderful to have these wishes come true in 2023! Read our 23-24 Pre-Budget submission for more information icpa.com.au/au/2023-24-pre…

Thursday the 1st of December will be ICPA (Aust)'s annual Geographically Isolated Distance Education (GIDE) day, recognising and celebrating families who have no other choice than to educate their children via distance education due to their geographic isolation #proudtobegide

What a wonderfully unique present to end my years of publishing and editing Pedals for ICPA Aust The new publisher is very talented as it's her handiwork that created this gem with a photo from many years ago.

With so much work & heartache going on in this space,to hear a National Code for boarding school students to travel interstate to return home for holidays,is the best news & so welcome!Thank you @senbmckenzie for understanding our rural and remote families ministers.dese.gov.au/mckenzie/natio…

There would be many families whose children have similar days. So close to holidays and school can wait.

Did you know that you don't need to be isolated or rural to be an ICPA Federal Councillor? Have a listen to what our wonderful Federal Secretary Sue who lives in down town Darwin has to say @nticpa @SAICPA1 @ICPAwa @IcpaQld #AGM #FedConf21

Have you applied for the Federal Government Tertiary Access Payment (TAP)? Participation in consultations to evaluate the TAP Program are underway and ICPA needs your feedback please. @nticpa @ICPAwa @SAICPA1 @senbmckenzie @IcpaQld @PerinDavey surveymonkey.com/r/FBNJ5GY

@amandagarner78 ICPA State and Federal Councils along with other key stakeholders are working with the Federal Government to ensure a solution to this problem is found asap.

Update- @ICPAFed all persons including Victorian children boarding in regional NSW will not have any exemptions made for a safe return to farms in Victoria unless It’s Hotel quarantine with an adult. Surely someone can find a solution that is fair Safe and reasonable
