The 2022 APPA Conference is just days away, I will be presenting the Presidents Report at the NSWPPA Annual General Meeting, and it will detail the business of the Association and the support, empowerment, advocacy and leadership we have offered and actioned this year. I will send out an interim ‘What’s Hot’ after Conference and pre–State Council which will detail the work of the Executive, Chairpersons and myself. Don’t forget to download the 2022 APPA Conference app through CVENT (app store ). Point in time updates and communication to you personally.

Next week over 500 of us have the opportunity to connect in person at the APPA Conference – some 700 + colleagues in all from across the nation from the three sectors, Government, Independent and Catholic will be engaging in a Conference that without doubt is going to ensure our wellbeing and professional learning is the absolute focus.

Please extend my appreciation to your staff who will step into your role next week so you can reconnect with colleagues and take on new learning.

Look forward to seeing you all at the Educational Expo on Tuesday – you are welcome to bring colleagues from your administrative/ teaching/leadership teams too. Remember to let your DEL know who will be relieving for you whilst you attend the Conference.

Most importantly I am looking forward to celebrating how far we have come and everything we have achieved in our schools, individually and collectively.
