Don’t miss this We need to adapt to the changes in climate and prepare for more extreme weather events including droughts and floods @KirstenDiprose @VicHub_Drought @FRRR_Oz @farmingforever @ActOnClimateVic @SustainVic @VicLLENs @YACVic @LaurenARickards @VCOSS @NCLLEN @NMLLEN
If climate adaptation is not done right, it can lead to maladaptation. We need to plan for a hotter, drier environment - so how do we make sure all voices are considered? Free @VicHub_Drought event ONLINE or in Bendigo @VCOSS @FRRR_Oz @LaurenARickards vicdroughthub.org.au/news-ev…

Yes, the new reforms are all about enabling all young Victorians to pursue high quality vocational education in our secondary schools 31 LLENs across the state are working with @VicGovDE & industry to implement the reforms & provide vital work placement opportunities 👏👍🏽👏🏾👍
Great to see positive stories on the rollout of the new VCE. The intro of the new Vocational Major is a strong step toward the de-stigmatisation & equity of access to hands-on learning opportunities in schools. theage.com.au/politics/victo…
