THere is a FACEBOOK Group called SAVE THE EDUCATION OF BLIND CHILDREN which has been established to lobby the Victorian Government - via a petition to Bronwyn Pike, the Minister for Education
The request of the petition states...
"Therefore the petitioners ask that the minister implement as quickly as possible a vital and effective centre of education which will carry on and expand the essential work of the current school.
The
petitioners also ask that the minister fully provide every state-funded
school with appropriate services and equipment as well as suitable
training for teachers and aides in preparation for the unique
challenges faced by each child who is blind or has low-vision.
Sincerely,
To let everyone know about this group, here is what Danielle, the founder has suggested that we let all our friends on facebook know about the petition and the group by putting thos details in "WHat are you doing now" and post it to your wall...ess Danielle's message below

I do not agree on the budget cuts to be implemented on special education for the blind. For one, education is a human right.

I wish there would be more people adjacent to this cause.
