Description
Participants will become familiar with Reconciliation Australia’s Narragunnawali: Reconciliation in Education program and online platform, which has tools and resources to support schools and early learning services to meaningfully contribute to the reconciliation movement.
This course will describe how early learning services can initiate developing a Reconciliation Action Plan on the Narragunnawali platform. Early childhood professionals will be guided to access professional learning and curriculum resources to support their pedagogical practice. Whilst initiating the Reconciliation Action Plan process, practitioners will be encouraged to engage with, and consider deliverables, actions and relevant supporting resources.
We recommend that practitioners new to the reconciliation space begin their journey by completing the course, ‘Reconciliation in children’s education and care: Taking the first steps’ available on the ECA Learning Hub before commencing this course. This will provide sufficient knowledge as a foundational basis for reconciliation in early childhood.
