Poll: Do you support the petition?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A group fighting to end discrimination against home schooled students competing in secondary schools sports have launched a nation-wide appeal and will soon take their petition to parliament.

After two top young mountain bikers were denied their medals at recent secondary schools competitions, the Home Educators Student Sports Association (HESSA) is asking for a rule change.
