Enough is Enough!
School Support Staff Rally, Parliament House
26th November 2008 10.30-11.30am
As School Support Staff continue to be buried beneath a mountain of work, Education Dept and Government are making decisions about resourcing for 2009.
They need to hear your voice - NOW!
We have invited the Minister for Education Liz Constable to address the Rally and outline the Governments plan to address your workload.

Please download, print and distribute the Schools Rally Poster in your workplace:
