From The Chairperson
This month we include my state report (below) which was presented at the ASBLA (Australian School Business Leaders Association) AGM last week which Lea-Anne Breganti and myself attended via Zoom. ASBLA is our National Association which we are affiliated with. We have a National ASBLA Meeting scheduled for 13 July which will be held via ZOOM due to our inability to attend interstate meetings at this time.
The TSAA continue to support administrators in schools by representing you at DoE Corporate Meetings and Focus and Project Stakeholder Groups. During this term we continued to meet with the Finance and HR Teams via TEAMS along with representation and involvement in a number of very interesting stakeholder groups and proposed initiatives including;
- SAAF – School Administrators’ Advisory Forum
- Kiosk Working Group
- People Capability and Development Group - re professional learning and training for non-teaching staff
- Workforce Wellbeing, Inclusion and Engagement Group
- Edupoint Pilot Program
- Business Operation Advisor Induction Program
Our Executive are busy planning our September conference program. What a great line up we have with some fabulous keynote speakers locked in, along with informative DoE Presentations from DoE Business Units and plenty of time for networking with our sponsors and colleagues. Save these dates - Thursday 8 and Friday 9 September 2022 at Country Club, Launceston. Further details in this Bulletin.
We are currently in conversations with the DoE Business Operations Advisors, reviewing and reflecting on the coordination and management of our Mentoring / Buddying Program. This program compliments and supports the BOA's New Induction Program. Further updates will be shared as we reassess who will facilitate this valuable program moving forward.
Wishing everyone a relaxing holiday break and / or some quiet catch-up time in your school. Take care, stay safe and enjoy some YOU time!
