Lily D’AMBROSIO (Mill Park – Minister for Climate Action, Minister for Energy and Resources, Minister for the State Electricity Commission) (09:47): I rise today to speak about my recent visits to Findon Primary School. I was delighted to chat with the kids at Findon on their International Women’s Day assembly. I talked about fairness and respect, including earning the same pocket money for the same household chores and brothers and sisters being able to play the same sports, and that went down really well. School captains and student representative council representatives, including wellbeing officers, also addressed the assembly and presented on what International Women’s Day means to them.
The following week I returned to the school alongside the federal member for Scullin to hear from the school principal Anita Osavkovska about the school’s plan for improvements. We received a list from the grade 5 and 6 class meeting of what students thought the school needed, with some excellent suggestions. The school principal has done a fantastic job leading her school team, and I thank her for her dedication to making a wonderful school environment.
