This week the staff and chairperson, Finbarr O'Driscoll came out in force to support our wonderful secretary, Suzanne, on the picket line. We deeply miss Suzanne, whose dedication and behind-the-scenes work are truly the backbone of our school. Her warmth, efficiency, and attention to detail make everything run smoother — and her absence is felt by all of us each day. Suzanne’s contribution is invaluable, and we can’t wait to have her back. Unfortunately, school secretaries and caretakers don’t have access to public service pensions, even though they go to work every day with teachers and SNAs who do. Without school secretaries and caretakers, schools simply can’t function. This is a campaign for equality among workers in school. We hope the government listens to their requests!
