Support The Ethics Trial

10 primary schools in NSW offer this semester an alternative to children who do not attend SRE classes. This trial is supported by numerous organisations, and most importantly, by many parents. This hasn't stopped some established Christian lobby groups to campaign against the trial. To stop parents from choosing.

Make yourself heard. Email your local newspaper, your local MP, Minster Firth or the Premier herself in support of the trial. And copy or forward your message to ethics.trial@gmail.com. We will post your emails here and on Facebook. Such that your voice is on record and will not go unnoticed.

I Support the Ethics Trial in NSW Primary Schools

Dear Carmel Tebbutt
I am writing to add my strong support for the Ethics Trial [more].
As a non-religious parent of two children at a public primary school I feel very strongly that Ethics should be offered as a weekly class in schools. I believe my children would benefit enormously from attending such a class.
In fact, I wonder why it was not offered to me as a child of non-religious parents attending a public school in the 1970s.
It seems it is well and truly time to introduce this subject. Those who wish to opt out of ethics could, of course, attend a religion class of their choice, if it is offered.
I look forwardd to seeing how this issue is progressed in the very near future. It is extremely important to me.
Yours sincerely

Jude McGee
