Thank you to the @froebeltrust.bsky.social for the opportunity to attend the Alumni & to @sallycave.bsky.social & all the presenters @froebelpartnership.bsky.social Good to look outwards~ reflect & connect along with opportunities for professional dialogue. 🪴💕🍃

Fiona, our Play Pedagogy Lead, attended the Froebel Conference, it began with an inspiring keynote from Catriona Gill on seeing, unfolding, flourishing, being & belonging. She reminded us that when we create the right conditions children flourish & that inclusion isn’t a policy, it’s a way of seeing

Thank you, Donna and for your seminar. Such a fantastic day with so many committed educators ❤️

Wonderful to see new Educators beginning their Froebel in Childhood Practice course today. 💕🍃#LifeLongLearners #PassionatePractitioners @morayhouse.bsky.social @pact-falkirk.bsky.social @fiona248.bsky.social @fclisamccabe.bsky.social ⬇️

@fiona248.bsky.social So inspiring listening to Fiona sharing her passion for Froebelian practice. It’s a privilege to hear from amazing educators. Take time to observe and reflect, focus on child as a unique individual. Connectedness, unity and real experiences central to core provision. 💛

It was so inspiring to hear from Educators talking so passionately about the importance of Froebel. Fiona Anderson shared the importance for educators to have time to observe and reflect on our children through play is so powerful! A very enjoyable night.

Wishing everyone a lovely October holiday 🍁🍂🍃💕

Read Amanda Burton Smith's blog which considers whether being connected to nature correlates to conserving it and if so, how an educator might engage with larger organisations in order to nurture positive attitudes towards conservation in children. bit.ly/4nHwZbu #Froebel #EngagingWithNature
