Posted by SELL OUT 1-day Workshop for Teachers
On Thursday 11 October 2018 in Tauranga we will be graced with the folk from Longworth Education (who are based in Hawkes Bay) offering a 1-day workshop called ‘Play in the Classroom’. This workshop SELLS OUT across the country. We have deliberately programmed this workshop within the school holidays making it easier and less expensive for schools to send their staff for professional development.
Teachers in the Junior School
This is a workshop especially for Teachers working in the Junior School.
Evening Talk – Why Play-based learning?
We are also offering an evening (on the same date – Thursday 11 October) presentation/talk for parents, schools and teachers needing to understand the importance OR helpfulness for kids’ development, when they have access to play-based learning in those first years of Primary School.
Here’s what the highly recommended course covers.
