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.

Tips on Writing Letters

We leave it up to you to find your own words when you write your letter, and to whom you want to send it. But just a few points of advice
  • Stay on topic: You might be tempted to bring up other issues that you care about, since your are writing anyway. While this is understandable, your letter will have more impact if it stays on topic.
  • If possible, make it personal: If you are directly affected by the current regulations on SRE, mention it. It proves that it is not (just) a matter of principle, but also a matter of your heart.
  • Keep it short: Especially when you write a letter to the editor. They often receive hundreds of emails, and prefer those that capture an idea succinctly.
  • And finally: Copy or forward the email to ethics.trial@gmail.com. Please. 
Good luck.
