It's not a visit to the Sydney Royal Easter Show without enjoying some of the CWA's tea and scones! The 2018 tally was 48,559 scones over the 12 day show with the highest day a record 5,124 on Good Friday. Will they serve more in 2019?

A global day to celebrate the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of all women. A day to acknowledge that we are better together, and call for #BalanceforBetter in accelerating gender parity. Today we acknowledge the women around the world who have inspired, mentored and cheered us on in our journey. They have come from all walks of life. They champion ideas, campaigns and people. They support, love and believe in others. They help to grow ideas, movements and inspire change. We too acknowledge the men who champion and support women, and campaign for women. Because of you, all of you, we are richer. Thank you!  Are you a NSW High School teacher? Or do you know someone??
