Hi All,
I am sharing an important celebration of our esteemed Science Technician colleagues. Without School Science Technicians our teaching days would be unsustainable, and probably unbearable.  Please share.

#STAR WEEK National Week of celebration for School Science Technicians



A national week of celebration for School Science Technicians has been organised by

Science Education Technicians Australia (S.E.T.A) <https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fseta.edu.au%2F&data=02%7C01%7CJulie.Carey%40education.wa.edu.au%7Cf8c724b784c84c824f4908d710a7e11b%7Ce08016f9d1fd4cbb83b0b76eb4361627%7C0%7C0%7C636996185541701053&sdata=Gpm8rErm%2BmCn%2BS58jy99Le0ESDmbbuUMRprIadC96ek%3D&reserved=0>

This  annual event is known as    #STARweek<https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.starweek.org.au%2F&data=02%7C01%7CJulie.Carey%40education.wa.edu.au%7Cf8c724b784c84c824f4908d710a7e11b%7Ce08016f9d1fd4cbb83b0b76eb4361627%7C0%7C0%7C636996185541711046&sdata=9nP%2FaMGWQpem%2Bo4ZpO%2BuMXt7ldedjHDdtPWfSlmxARY%3D&reserved=0>

Please do your part to promote the professional role that science technicians play in the delivery of practical science in schools.
In the majority of cases the science technician role is done by the silent achievers,  or as one technician explained to me they do the “fairy jobs” the ones that no one knows about, but without them practical science in schools would not be possible.
This national event is organised by SETA<https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fseta.edu.au%2F&data=05%7C01%7CJulie.Carey%40education.wa.edu.au%7Cbbd4e792c95d4d2e8c1608da450c5f3a%7Ce08016f9d1fd4cbb83b0b76eb4361627%7C0%7C0%7C637898216794099364%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=%2FpoQlU4Wpt3XZjp%2BZXUuuxaLe%2BgnI47othz4POmAxKU%3D&reserved=0> (School Education Technicians Australia) to promote the role and to recognise the importance and professionalism of School Science Technicians
By sharing this poster in your schools you are helping all technicians that work in the secondary schools throughout Australia.
It is proven that schools that have trained, experienced and skilled professional technicians have a direct and positive impact on the delivery of the practical science curriculum.
 Please let your school know about this event.
