Nation building is about leadership – in our sector as well as developing leadership in our children. It’s about maintaining social harmony; learning to be independent. It’s about deciding whether we are leaders or followers of our sector’s future. Nation building is about accepting and confirming early childhood education is where it all starts – building the nation of tomorrow!

The focus of this practical two-day conference (25–26 July – term break) - is ‘mapping a new landscape’ – with the aim of giving you practical strategies to use with your students straight away plus inspiration and a fresh perspective on teaching and learning for the 21st century.

125th Jutbilee, 7^th, 8^th & 9^th February 2014. Past and present staff, students, parents/whanau and community members are invited to attend.
