    On the contrary, in QLD you can legally record conversations to which you are a party without informing the other party.

    ... It is not illegal to simply record a telephone conversation if you are a party to the conversation as long as you do not attach anything to or in the phone or its connections.

    ...
    Appropriately obtained recordings can be accepted by a court as evidence.

    It is not illegal to record a face-to-face conversation that you are involved in but there may be restrictions on how you use it.

    I am a white Australian and I hate racism. I have a friend, an e-judge who is parried to a woman from PNG and his family is lovely-- though I do not know his family well, I know him well.

    I think Principals are purposely very selective with their words so as not to offend the Parents more times than not. Generally parents cannot handle the 'cutting to the bone' truth especially about their little cherubs.

    Adults are defensive of their offspring (especially in the school environment) and sometimes are not open minded to situations that occur outside of their home.

    OOPS, should have said "ex-judge who is Married to a PNG woman." He quit after the courts were bombed.

    Keeping a log is a good idea.
    Have a look at the school's bullying policy - it should be on the website or in the school pack received on enrolment. If not, go to the school and ask for a copy.
    Sound out the child to find out how serious you think this really is - is it minor or major?
    Then ask for a meeting with the principal, explain and ask the principal for a statement of what steps will be taken and when. Follow up on those steps.
    Assume the school really does want to deal with this. Act accordingly.
    Bullying is always unacceptable.

    Racism is happily back front and centre despite a spin doctor view "we should be proud"??? Honestly think anything less than saying sorry and issues will be fixed and offenders will be rehabilitated is rather pathetic. Eddie everywhere spin ( I had Dalmatians and barrack for the black and white team)

    "Friday December 11, 2020. It loomed as a landmark day in AFL history.

    The board members of the Collingwood Football Club met and took possession of Do Better, an independent review of the club's responses to incidents of racism and cultural safety in the workplace.
    For Collingwood, it was a day of reckoning that had been decades in the making, but it was triggered only in recent years, thanks to 2010 premiership star Héritier Lumumba making public his experiences of racism.
    From the outset, the club had been clear: The report would be made public, the Pies had entered a new phase of transparency and anti-racism, they were bravely subjecting themselves to an honest and unflinching appraisal of their culture and people.
    And yet, for seven weeks … nothing. Barely a peep. First there were denials that it even existed, then denials that Eddie McGuire's resignation of the club presidency on December 14 related in any way to what professors Larissa Behrendt and Lindon Coombes had written."

    Calling out racism not hiding or allowing others to is fine with me. Spin like Eddies is not helpful. Glad he is going now.

    Hope the Kids are fine.
