Last night, Madison Pedler was appointed vice- captain of her Sydney primary school for 2014, after being voted in by the student body. She attends the local mainstream public school (with more than 550 students).During the election process last month, along with all the other candidates, Madison delivered a speech to the other students - it was short and simple enough for her to read, and it was on a screen behind her just in case she needed the extra support. It's a wonderful example of inclusion working beautifully when all the right supports and attitudes are in place.
Congratulations Madison, and to your school.
