Each month, our leadership team comes together to collaborate, reflect and look ahead. Taking the time to celebrate what we’ve achieved, consider what we’ve learned and thoughtfully plan for the month ahead.
On Monday, our team started the week strong with some rich reflection around the Children's Rights Queensland Educators Guide, exploring how each room is continuing to embed children’s rights into everyday practice, relationships, environments and decision making.
We also reflected on how Children’s Rights Queensland’s beautiful new book, ‘Hello, You’, aligns with the guide and how we can use it to further support children in understanding their rights, identity and sense of belonging.
Our discussions then moved to the final stages of our Children’s Handbook before publication, upcoming individual program cycles, beginning our planning for Children’s Week in October, and developing room projects inspired by children’s rights.
We shared knowledge from recent professional developments, reflected on current research and discussed how these learnings can continue to influence and strengthen our practice.
There was lots of conversation, reflection, ideas and collaboration, but throughout every discussion, one thing remained at the forefront:
The children 🥰
Their voices, rights, wellbeing, relationships, learning and sense of belonging continue to guide the decisions we make and the environments we create.
Because when we come together as educators and leaders, our goal is always the same, to make a meaningful difference in the everyday experiences of children. 🌿
