Wow. Okay. That was hilarious. Not sure it’s “racism” exactly, just explaining a little roughly that they don’t give a shit about the deaf (who wouldn’t be on the phone anyway) or non-English speakers (why would they wait listening to jibberish for so long to hear that bit?), and either of these could be of any race. Hm.

I would totally enrol my kid at that school.

What the fuck Maroochydore High School? Is this for real, for real? It was all pretty passive aggressive and then, BAM, hello racism. *shakes fist*

“This is the message that the Maroochydore High School, Queensland, staff voted unanimously to record on their school telephone answering machine .

This is the actual answering machine message for the school.

This came about because they implemented a policy requiring students and parents to be responsible for their children’s absences and missing homework.

The school and teachers are being sued by parents who want their children’s failing grades changed to passing grades - even though those children were absent 15-30 times during the semester and did not complete enough school work to pass their classes.”

Reblogging because I know the awful time that teachers often have in working with parents.

Brilliant.

holy crap. I can only dream of the day we could get away with saying this in America.

God Bless Australia…

Yeh it’s great but the last couple of seconds completely ruins it. GOOD ON YOU STUDENTS AND TEACHERS FOR AGREEING THAT XENOPHOBIA IS AWESOME.
