    Revisiting the Protest demanding FULL FUNDING NOW

    Revisiting the Protest demanding FULL FUNDING NOW.This protest took place on Wednesday, 12th of November outside the offices of Anthony Carbine MP in Heidelberg. Many passionate teachers, education aids, principals, parents, students and school communities gathered to pressure the Victorian Government to fully fund PUBLIC SCHOOLS NOW. Despite being the "Education State", Victoria's public schools are among the least funded in Australia, and our public school teachers are the lowest paid in the country. The struggle continues, join the fight!(Special thanks again to Jordan and Mary from 3CR's Friday Green Left Breakfast and Karina, awesome volunteer and 3CR Breakfast producer!)Great State School of the week- Essenden North Primary Schoolwww.adogs.info
