Transgender ideology in schools

Katherine from Mellons Bay

Hi neighbours,

A large proportion of us are parents of Year 1-13 school kids. I just wished to bring to parents' awareness that your kids are lined up to be taught transgender ideology in their schools.

This ideology premises that sex is not binary (male/female) but on a continuum, and that biology is irrelevant to gender, because gender is only a social construct.

The official Govt policy is located here, www.inclusive.tki.org.nz... under "LGBTQIA+". You can read it for yourself, especially the part about inclusive classroom practices, to see what their vision of an inclusive class is like.

There is a petition before Parliament to request that this policy be removed. At present it has 12k signatures. It closes on 28 Feb and another petition on the same topic cannot be resubmitted once closed. It can be found here if you are interested: www.parliament.nz...

For further commentary see Parts 1-4 of this article series : www.whaleoil.co.nz...

We all agree that trans people deserve to be treated with civility and respect. However people who disagree with their kids being brainwashed into these political beliefs with no opt-out, should be respected too.

No other political or minority group in our society has been given such a broad platform by the Ministry of Education to push their beliefs into the minds of impressionable children, without consent of the parents.

Thanks for reading my message, and I hope you will consider signing the petition.

Poll: Should you ask before planting tall shrubs/trees near your property line?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It may be fine now but in a few years trees can block out light or views for neighbours.

Do you think neighbours should ask before they go ahead and plant these?
