Gordonvale Meeting  (RSVP)

The traditional owners of the land upon which our network gathers are the Malanbarra Yidinji people.

2020 Network Goals (to be ratified)​

• By June 2020, we will have hosted a PD session and a follow up Problem of Practice session focusing on trauma and complex behaviours / strategies for within the classroom, so that teachers and educators can apply this knowledge in their own settings to support learning.  


• By August 2020 we will have collaboratively produced the 2020 Prep Orientation guide so that parents have informed choice for school orientation activities and early childhood educators can plan,  if needed, to attend activities with children.   

 

• By September 2020, we will have collaboratively designed, developed and delivered our “I Wonder” project, involving children, parents, teachers and family support services.
