19 MayTalking about Play Symposium : a virtual event : 24 May – 04 June 2021
Sponsored announcement
A must-see event where KU Learning & Development brings together expert speakers that share their knowledge and provoke us to think deeply about how we can create environments that are rich for children’s play.
Key early childhood leaders bring us a range of pedagogical perspectives, challenging us to explore possibilities for play and reconsider play spaces that engage children to explore their environments and enquire about their world.
You will have access, over a two-week period, to all recorded webinars so they can be watched at a time that suits you.
Each webinar comes with a Reflection Guide you can use to guide team discussions about the topic.
