Being an early childhood educator in Australia means that you will need to engage with the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF). While many educators know this document well, others feel like they are just getting started, sometimes feeling out of their depth and unsure of how they bring ideas into their practice.

This session will shine a light onto the Framework and starting from the beginning, exploring the EYLF step-by-step. We will explore ideas, definitions, expectations and possibilities. Questions will be welcome, discussions will be frequent and learning will abound! Bring along your copy of the EYLF and we guarantee that you will leave ready to sink your teeth into teaching and learning.
