There is all the media articles and releases as well as an online petition if people want to add their name to that would be great. Alex's youtube is also there.

The government should be creating more schools like Hurlstone Ag, not breaking them up. Our students need schools like this. Hurlstone Ag and schools just like it are in touch with life. They share with students the stuff of life. The joy of living. Why do governments seemingly find it so easy to get it so wrong? Chris and Alex, good work.

After lobbying for the establishment of selective schools...and this one being unique....it is vital that all voices can be heard and everyone lobbies. Good luck to all involved.

Good luck with saving the farm. I hope the students succeed. It will give them faith in the government, country, and themselves. Eddie Shaw Hello,
