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 Phil Koperberg
I am writing to add my strong support for the Ethics Trial  [more].
My children have been disadvantaged by opting out of Scripture - they waste at least half an hour each week doing a "boring" & pointless activity sheet when they could be using this time to explore & discuss important ethical issues. If we must have Scripture in schools (rather than as an extra-curricular activity, which would be more appropriate in the 21st century), then the same ethical content could be offered to Scripture teachers to use as they see fit, so that no child is disadvantaged.
