Endorsement Statements

Peter Monkhouse.
I know that Peter possesses integrity, he embodies persistence and he will see matters through to a resolution.

Peter can be relied upon to operate rationally, impartially and unequivocally for the benefit of members.

Jodie Clegg
I am endorsing Peter Clisby because although he has been teaching for at least 100 years he is still passionate about teaching and making a difference to his students and colleagues. He approaches all he does with integrity and fairness in mind.

Karen Piening
Peter is committed to the union, to the creation and protection of effective working conditions and the promotion of the professional standing of teachers and other educational workers. He approaches all issues in an ethical, sincere and considered way, and will provide strong, collaborative and honest leadership to the AEU NT.

Matthew Cranitch
Matthew Cranitch has extensive experience both as a Teacher and as an AEU-NT Office Bearer. Matthew was an Executive member of the Union between 2005 and 2009 representing the Darwin region. He was an Official Negotiator on behalf of the AEU during the last UCA.

Matthew demonstrated his competency and skills when he chaired the Darwin and Palmerston combined regional meetings during the last wages dispute at Mararra Stadium and other venues throughout Darwin. Matthew was President of the Darwin Regional Council from 2007 to 2009 and is currently the DRC Secretary. He was Vice President of the Casuarina Senior College Sub Branch in 2006 and has been Branch President since 2007.

From Matthew:
I intend to nominate for the Presidency of the AEU-NT when elections are called later this year and I urge those members who are aware of my credentials and commitment to the Union to also support Peter Clisby in the upcoming ballot for Secretary.

Peter and I share similar concerns about the direction and governance of our Union. As such, we believe that jointly, we possess the skills, experience, drive and passion to ensure the AEU-NT best represents its membership into the future. We represent the best option for the AEU-NT members in these upcoming elections.
