 Network Goals:

  1. Building and maintaining partnerships between Early Childhood Education and Care Services, Primary Schools, Government and Community Partners;
  2. Advocating for Continuity of Learning and Care (National Early Years Learning Framework, My Time Our Place, Australian Curriculum)
  3. Supporting Transition and Orientation (Birth to Eight)
  4. Providing and engaging in professional and personal development informed by community context

 We will achieve this by:

  • creating a Cluster Kindergarten and Prep orientation booklet
  • delivering a Playgroup community of practice forum
  • support the re-establishing maternity and parental services
  • support  the inclusion of Early Years Place / Increased Early Intervention Services for children aged 0-5
  • promoting community spaces and services
  • collaboratively plan community events (Child protection week, under 8s)
