"This morning, I felt a deep appreciation for our teachers and school staff.

Despite the relentless rain—and while many of us have the option to work from home during this weather—you all continue showing up to guide and support our children.

Just wanted to say a heartfelt thank you to each of you."

— a parent of Ramsgate Public School

"Thank you for the amazing art show tonight. What a wonderful display of our children’s artwork, and a great evening for the school community! A great fundraising opportunity too!

I appreciate the effort it takes to organise these events, and greatly appreciate teachers volunteering their time to make it happen.

Thank you, and happy public education week to all."
