The State School Teachers' Union WA (SSTUWA) continues to provide Early Childhood Educators with opportunities to develop effective industrial and professional practice, understandings and knowledge. This forum will address the importance of an intentional play-based approach in ECE and explore what it can look like in an early learning space.
The SSTUWA welcomes Jan Snowden to this event. Jan joined Early Life Foundations and the Walker Learning Team in 2012 after 37 years of early childhood teaching. Prior to joining Early Life as a consultant, Jan was the Team Leader at Altona Green Primary School, Victoria - one of the first primary schools to implement the Walker Learning Approach. Jan believes that children's lives are enriched by exploring, investigating, experiencing and relating to the world around them and as significat adults in children's lives, a teacher's role is to mentor, support and value each unique iundividual.
Early Childhood Educators are invited to join Jan to:
Reflect on a Way Forward. Hear from Judith James, Deputy, Applecross Primary School and SSTUWA ECE Committee Member. Judith will share her reflections and experiences using The Walker Approach.
