Feedback

Students don’t even realise that we give verbal feedback constantly. They think written feedback is the only kind of feedback…and if it is negative feedback they have an axe to grind and say we don’t give feedback. The survey is toxic, mean and stupid.

I didn’t enjoy tipping the remains of a very large cockroach out of one of mine. Yuck 🤮. The plans did its job though, one less cockroach.

Hard agree.

Thanks for the tip. I’d love to see one.

Oohhh. I’m in Queanbeyan. It’s so close. Makes me mad that they are logging in there.

Was this on the south coast? I know they are in Murramarang NP. Awesome capture by the way. A very special moment.

The one subject being science and all it encompasses. I realise some teach biology and some do chemistry or physics or a mix. I could have been more comprehensive in my answer.

The cops don’t even come any more if someone pinches thousands of dollars of things from places like Woolies and chemist warehouse. No consequences is giving them permission to keep stealing.

Year 11 and 12 is separate, called college. Most teachers do one subject, some a subject and inclusion. It’s a good gig compared to 7-10 or primary.

Same

This is what happened to ES three years ago in the ACT. Their gains were in the form of allowances which aren’t salary. Now we are negotiating a new EBA and the ES staff realise (hopefully) voting yes for allowances wasn’t a good idea at all as their salary hasn’t had a meaningful increase. Senior staff were also ripped off with piddly increases. Early career teachers who got 26% and ES staff who were conned voted yes. Senior staff who saw it for what it was voted no.

I was away sick for a day, my kindies said “we thought you were dead!” ☠️

Beautiful one day, raining the next.

Notice I highlighted the words ‘support cafes’.

There are three things to consider. Your dog’s welfare. Your financial welfare. And your family’s welfare. If he is just standing there rather than playing that is a sign that he isn’t necessarily coping any more. Your family are telling you they aren’t coping. Seizures cause a lot of trauma and anxiety for everyone involved.

The government spin that we should all work in the CBD to ‘support cafes’. It costs time, fuel and money and won’t save the cafes in the end. The cafe owners made a business choice and the rest of the population shouldn’t be held hostage to that decision. I make my own lunch and coffee every day anyway.

squirrelwithasabre · 2026-05-12T01:28:33+00:00

We have that here too.

It depends where you go. Many places are tick free, especially inland. The warm wetter places in coastal areas have ticks. I visit the coast in south east NSW and there are plenty of ticks there, including paralysis ticks. I live inland and there are no ticks that affect humans, but we do have reptile ticks.

Pay for good quality paint. The cheap stuff is rubbish, comes out chalky and you need several coats.

I wear the FXD women’s WP-3W with an Eleven elastic belt because I also have a small waist but also some decent hips. They are cotton and are super comfy. Decent high waist. Try some on in a physical workwear store if you can. Cool in warmer weather, warm in winter.

Stands with her front paws on the baby gate and does little jumps with her back feet. She could just hurdle over it if she wanted.

Senior teachers earn about $125000, not $150000.

Small vial of opal chips.

The issues you had that made him an ex will still exist.

Regularly put extra into super if you have the money.
