20.01.2022 When every sign points to a shortage of vital skills, cutting courses from TAFE is nothing short of economic sabotage.

17.01.2022 "To say I'll miss John Kaye is an understatement, but we must go on. The best way to honour and remember John Kaye is to keep doing what he was doing." It was an honour to speak to the condolence motion for my colleague and dear friend Dr John Kaye in parliament yesterday. Farewell, Dr K.

10.01.2022 "Australian Education Union federal president Correna Haythorpe said the government's announcement was a "quick fix designed to get the Coalition through an election campaign" and would leave schools more than $3 billion short of the full needs-based Gonski funding." #gonski #publiceducation

10.01.2022 Reminder to please join us for a celebration of the life of John Kaye this Friday, 27 May at the City Recital Hall, Angel Place Sydney. Refreshments will be served from 4pm and the event will begin at 4:30pm. John was many things to many people. An academic, friend, fierce advocate for social justice and above all a kind, decent man.

This Friday, speakers including Senator Richard Di Natale (Leader of the Australian Greens), Steve Butler (Secretary of the ETU - the Electrical Trades Union), Lila Mularczyk (President of the Secondary Principals' Association), Pat Forward (Deputy Federal Secretary of the Australian Education Union), Lynda Stoner (Chief Executive of Animal Liberation NSW), David Shoebridge (NSW Greens MLC), John’s partner Lynne and members of his family will pay tribute to John and reflect on his legacy.

04.01.2022 Those of us who worked for John had front-row seats to John's boundless energy, tireless passion, acerbic wit and righteous anger. His loss is devastating to us, and to our movement. John's commitment to education - public schools, TAFE - his passion and inconceivable knowledge of renewable energy, his endless capacity for taking the concerns of the community and bringing them before this Parliament, bespoke a man who in all things put others before himself. Vale, John Kaye. We will carry on your campaigns and do justice to your fight. Most of all, we will miss you.
