Parent Led Protest
Wednesday, June 25th, 2008We had an incredible turnout with over 1500 people supporting our Protest today.
This whole process of organising this event only commenced 14 days ago when we asked for parent support for the path we felt we had to take and it is incredible to think that the culmination of the support offered in such a short period of time has been illustrated by the level of attendance we had today.  It is very important to stress that this event combined with others that will occur in the near future are a combined sustained effort from all elements within the school including teaching staff, principle, board of management, and the overall parent body. We hope by combining all our efforts into one well coordinated approach at refusing to accept our current situation will demonstrate to government our determination to have this issue resolved for once and for all with the realization of the new school we have been promised and deserve as being the only solution acceptable. Â
It is very important that we thank the children of the school that drew on their creative sides of to compose the very original multi lingual slogans on display especially the senior classes.Â
We would sincerely like to thank everybody involved and to thank those who could not attend who have supported our attempt to bring our predicament in to a wide public arena with this rally today. We all know that the business of government takes an extended siesta in the coming weeks and we hope that what we have done here today will give them some food for thought during the lazy days of summer, I assure you we will not be taking the same sojourn and will continue to coordinate our effort during this time. If you have any suggestions of how we should go forward please feel free to contact any of the BoM or the Parents Association.Â
Please keep a close on all the media coverage over the coming days, we expect huge coverage even nationally!
