You have probably heard that the government  has cut ACE funding to schools by 80%, and there will also no longer be any funding available to community groups through schools after the end of 2009… (No more night classes!)
BOO! HISS!
Show your opposition, and  support the community by attending the protest march on Parliament on Tuesday 4 August (tomorrow), leaving Wellington High School at 2.15pm to arrive at Parliament by 3pm.
The route for the march will be from Gate 4 on Taranaki Street (by the
pedestrian crossing next to the school gym – assemble around the gym
outside area), then down Taranaki Street, along Dixon Street to
Victoria Street, then down Manners Street to Willis Street then along
Lambton Quay to Parliament. Â If you can’t be at the start, just join
the march along the way or meet us at Parliament if you can.
Spread the word!
This does stink. I teach adult computing classes to beginners and creative computing classes to not so beginners. I can’t understand the rationale behind it really. But then I’m not surprised. The blighters!!!
