Our 1st payment by outcomes project and the 1st in Aust early years! We've brought this to Tas to meaningfully and measurably change life chances for 300 3yos by helping them start school ready. Shout out to our incredible partners - the Paul Ramsay Fdn and the Commonwealth Govt.
Our formal Launch on Monday was a tremendous success, with thanks to guest speakers Senator Wendy Askew, representing Minister @Anne_Ruston, @AGMudaliar from @prfoundation1, and of course Matt Gardiner and David O'Sign from my own organisation.
49% of #Aboriginal and #TorresStraitIslander youth have completed year 12 or its equivalent, compared with 75% of non-Indigenous students. There is a direct link between children’s health and educational outcomes. #auspol

If we endorse Constitutional recognition, “Australia will not wake up losing 230 years of colonial rule, but gaining 65,000 years of culture.” John Christophersen, #Garma18
If the AFL refuses to take AFLW seriously, it should either pass on the responsibility to someone else, or let the players form their own league outside of the AFL’s clutches.
Get Debbie Lee and Chyloe Kurdas and Susan Alberti to run it. Keep Steve Hocking away with a crowbar.
