Download Award Results We Give Life-Changing Scholarships 2020 Minister’s and Secretary’s Awards for Excellence Welcome It is an absolute pleasure to present the winners of the 2020 Minister’s and Secretary’s Awards for Excellence. These Awards showcase the exceptional work that occurs every day across NSW public education – by schools, students, teachers, employees and parents. One of the Public Education Foundation’s primary roles is to celebrate the best of public schooling, and the Minister’s and Secretary’s Awards do that in spades. The Foundation is proud to manage the Awards on behalf of The Hon. Sarah Mitchell MLC, Minister for Education and Early Childhood Learning and Mr Mark Scott AO, Secretary of the NSW Department of Education. In normal times, we would be meeting this week for a large Awards ceremony, but this year COVID-19 means that we are recognising our winners locally in their school environments. That does nothing to diminish the quality of the winners we are celebrating. You will read here about outstanding contributions and innovative initiatives from across NSW, from community drought relief at Trundle Central School to Wellbeing Wednesday at Canterbury Boys High. Finally, I want to share a quick reminder that our 2021 scholarship round for primary and secondary students are closing soon. We have hundreds of scholarships to award, including new scholarships for Indigenous and regional and remote students. Head to our website and take a look! We hope to see you back in person for next year’s Award ceremony.

  • 2017 MANSW Annual Conference
    2017 yenMANSW Annual Conference Adjusting Your Altitude PLATINUM SPONSORS MANSW thanks the following sponsors for their support of the 2017 MANSW Annual Conference GOLD SPONSOR SILVER SPONSORS OTHER SPONSORS Pre-Dinner Drinks President’s Reception Sponsor Presenter Gifts Welcome to the 2017 MANSW Annual Conference Adjusting Your Altitude 2017 MANSW Annual Conference Adjusting Your Altitude A very warm welcome to the 2017 MANSW Annual Conference: “Adjusting Your Altitude”. In deciding to bring the MANSW Annual Conference to the Blue Mountains this year, I wanted our theme to be related to the mountains in some way. In particular, the graphic that we have used this year stood out to me as a graphic that epitomises our work as teachers. To teach effectively, it is not enough to explain our knowledge, experiences, to talk students through the journey they will go on, all the potholes they may fall in, how to navigate, how to plan for bad weather, how to move up the mountain… you have to walk it with them, and help them on the way, adjusting as you go. We are excited to be able to welcome many educators to our conference this year, and there are many notable events to look forward to. On Friday morning we have two excellent speakers: Mark Harrison and Angela D’Angelo. Mark Harrison has a background in Mathematics and Psychology and will speak to us about Growth Mindset, in particular how understanding student mindsets can deeply influence our effectiveness in the classroom. Angela D’Angelo, one of the recipients of a Premier’s Teaching Scholarship in 2016, will continue the conversation around Growth Mindset as well as discuss her journey over the last year.

FIRE BANS Ministerial Statement Mr MORRIS IEMMA (Lakemba—Premier, Minister for State Development, and Minister for Citizenship) [2.17 p.m.]: Total fire bans are again in place across most of the State today as firefighters battle a number of bushfires in the Blue Mountains, the Hunter Valley, Forbes, Oberon and the South Coast. Hot, dry and windy conditions have resulted in very high to extreme fire danger in many districts. Emergency declarations have been made for a number of the fires now burning. About 900 volunteer firefighters from the Rural Fire Service have been deployed, along with their colleagues from New South Wales Fire Brigades, Forests NSW and the National Parks and Wildlife Service. I acknowledge the employers of all of our volunteers for their ongoing support in allowing them to leave their workplaces to protect the community. The most serious of the fires are those currently burning in the Blue Mountains, where firefighters have been battling two bushfires in the Grose Valley for the past nine days.
