It's good to be back! 18 month break from work social media. Big changes in my pro life since then and I'm excited to be back. What a way to re-engage today! The amazing @PamelaSnow2 @DrLSHammond @ehanford @tserry2504 in Sydney today. Thank you @latrobe & @SOTLAus

@NathanielRSwain Sounds amazing! I'm in Canberra. Very keen!

We are putting together a regular forum for school #middleleaders like learning specialists and leading teachers to network and share practice. Let me know if you want to support the organisation of these likely bi-termly events.

For leaders in any profession or field: Allow the people you are in charge of to share their talents and give them a chance to achieve in any way as often as possible. @acelaustralia Being a leader is HARD, Being ready to lead but not given the opportunity is HARDER #ACEL

Amazing Job! What a treat it was to not only present my story and represent @ceacg but also hear some amazing voices in Education. Can't wait to see what comes next @acelaustralia #RelationshipsMatter #NC22 #ACEL

Much reflection still happening a week after @acelaustralia Conf. Teachers No.1 focus/priority should be to constantly advocate for their students. Leaders No.1 focus/priority should be to advocate for their teachers so they have the best chance to do just that #NC22 #ACEL

Amazing @acelaustralia National Conference @amyjccuddy @leecrockett @adam_voigt @loukaparry So engaging and I felt privileged to share my story & current work with the "3 Types of respect for students" #NC22 #ACEL If you wish to discuss more or connect: blinq.me/DqpaYokllgAx

@loukaparry @acelaustralia @Paul_Kidson @BrionyScott So true @loukaparry 🙏

It’s the stories of hope that make students want to show up. @acelaustralia #nc22 #acel @Paul_Kidson @BrionyScott

@mlobrien1 Thanks @mlobrien1 it was a pleasure to share my story and experiences. Hope I have the opportunity to reach some more educators and facilitate this important discussion. #NC22 #ACER #relationshipsmatter

Raw and honest story from @mattaqua Respect and fear runs out, but TLC will always be there. Trust, love, care! #NC22 #hope

An absolutely unbelievable honour to speak as part of our panel @acelaustralia Conference. So happy that were given the chance to share our stories of hope. Thank you @Paul_Kidson @BrionyScott and the amazing students who shared their voice #NC22 #ACER

@traceyezard @BrionyScott @mattaquilino825 Thanks for the support @traceyezard remember it's @mattaqua 😉

@BrionyScott speaking with eloquence to the incredibly important role we as educators have to hold the precious dreams of our students carefully. @mattaquilino825 speaking of trust love & compassion. Two brilliant students Szonja & William - hope AND action. #acelaustralia #nc22

An amazing @acelaustralia Key Note from @amyjccuddy so many of our "wins" with students come from the idea of Trust. The best way to earn a student's respect is from TLC (Trust, Love and Care) #acel2022 #NC22 #relationshipsMatter

Day 2 and gosh it's going to be a great one nation conference. Very excited for the key note @amyjccuddy this morning and can't wait to present with my panel in the afternoon. #ACEL #NC22

A perfect early morning run and so excited that the @acelaustralia National conference kicks off today. Can't wait to hear from amazing people and absolutely buzzing about presenting with my panel on Thursday afternoon #NC22

1 Week to go! Feels surreal being a panelist at @acelaustralia National Conference. I feel honoured to be representing @ceacg and I am so excited to share my journey & experience in our amazing schools & how we can all continue to give our Students HOPE & OPPURTUNITY #NC22 #ACEL

My challenging Student: "Mr. A, I liked that you trusted me to do that, even though sometimes your trust is misplaced I like that you trust me." 😂 Me: "Mate, My job is to trust you each day. Your job is to earn that trust each day". @acelaustralia #RelationshipsMatter #NC22

@Brad1968 @ellis_patrick Some amazing looking spaces. Nice work At. Mary's!
