The National Reconciliation Week 2024 theme Now More Than Ever reminds us that, no matter what, the fight for justice and the rights of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people will – and must – continue. 

Deborah Hoger, a proud Dunghutti woman and  early years Indigenous educational resources specialist, shares her thoughts on the theme, along with ideas for how educators can celebrate with children and engage their team during the week of 27 May - 3 June. 

Rough and tumble play is irresistible for young children - they are drawn to its blend of physical activity and occasional competitiveness. How can we support children in their playful exploration while teaching them to prioritise safety and consent?

ECT and CELA early education specialist Meg Anastasi explores its value in physical and social development, and how we can embed it safely in early education spaces. 

2023 Australian of the Year Taryn Brumfitt says: “We’re not born hating our bodies, it’s something the world teaches us.” So how can early childhood educators protect children in their care from the pressures and shame around the way they look?

International body image expert Dr Zali Yager shares the latest science-backed strategies with us.
