Early Childhood Educators (Infants to Grade 2) should seek not only to meet best practice but to exceed it. To do this, educators must ensure that their practice is embedded in their daily operations, informed by critical reflection, and shaped by meaningful engagement with families and the broader community.
Held in Term 1, Term 2 and Term 3, The Exceed K-2 Learning Community Events will be held on-line and face-to—face simultaneously.
