Far From The Big Smoke. It’s time for Curriculum Review. March 11, 2015 · 10:52 pm. You said yesterday that Australians are sick of being lectured to.

I’m not really prepared to write a blog post on this, but seeing as it’s now hit the press, it’s worth putting up. In terms of APY press coverage, this is likely to get quite a bit I’d imagined.

Far From The Big Smoke. Schooling changes on the Lands. It’s time for Curriculum Review →. I’ve been remiss in posting for a long time – but this needs to be posted here.
