I am presenting a webinar with TAFE NSW on 13 August from 1-2pm. This session is Reclaiming Play, Reclaiming Childhood - a journey of exploring our own relationship with play as educators and reflecting on our own childhoods so that we can create early childhood programs that restore play and childhood for today’s children.

These sessions are not only for NSW educators, anyone can access them. They are all free! TAFE NSW has so many programs available online already, with many more to come. Jump online to register for this session or to check out all of the other sessions available already.

Early Childhood educators! If you’re looking for free PD, I have a session running with TAFE NSW on 27 August from 1-2pm. The session is about listening to children’s voices in early childhood settings and creating spaces that allow children to have a voice on matters that affect them. The focus of this work is based on Article 12 of the UNCRC and uses the Welty and Lundy model to facilitate child voice committees in early childhood centres. It’s going to be a fabulous session with lots of rich research and examples to get you started on your own child voice journey.

You do not have to be an educator in NSW to access these online webinars. All educators, managers, leaders and early childhood related roles are welcome! There are so many sessions already on the site to access and many more sessions coming up in the next few years. Check it out!

Today’s session of Reclaiming Play, Reclaiming Childhood was jam packed with play based experiences for educators to feel the importance of play again. To embody the joy, freedom and creativity of play. We also explored how our own life experiences impact the way we view and respond to children, engaging reflexive thinking to start looking at why we act in certain ways. With a system filled with pressures to diminish play and privilege outcomes, we need to reclaim play for children by remembering just how important play is for all of us.

I always love seeing the creativity of educators coming through and just how ready they are to play! A room filled with joy and rich discussions today!

We had a fabulous online educator wellbeing session this morning with a team in Sydney. We focused on creating personal and professional goals for 2026, and visioning forward what that will look like. We set up individual and a collective team line of inquiry to guide reflection for the year. We then choose an intention for the year. The educators were taken through:
✨reflection
✨thematic analysis
✨visualisation
✨team building
✨meditation

We engaged in some rigorous debate as we came to the collective conclusion that next steps for the team would include being more present with themselves, each other and children, being able to prioritise children’s authentic learning over outcomes, and working together as a team would feel like a supportive and connected place to be.

The educators reflected at the end on what they are taking away with them from the session:
⭐️ hope and the realisation that we (the team) are on the same page
⭐️ calm and the realisation that it’s okay to nurture myself without guilt
⭐️ the importance of listening to ourself and taking care of ourselves to take better care of each other and the children
⭐️ feeling optimistic and realising it’s okay not to be okay
⭐️ relaxed and an intent to be present
⭐️ feeling clarity on what to aim for this year.

Abundant Education is available for educator wellbeing sessions. Whether your team needs team building, creating collective vision for the year, grounding and regulating, improving communication, unpacking complex situations or celebrating achievements we can work with you to create a wellbeing session for you. Get in touch - we’d love to help you too!

✨ Some heartfelt reflections from our Educators’ Wellbeing Workshop at Corinda Kindy this week:
🌿 “It was so nice to spend time together as a team in a relaxed space and connect with each other. Often, we come to do the work and then say goodbye to return to our families, so times like this are very special. My takeaway is to have more quiet time with my thoughts, away from distractions.”
🌿 “Your session gave me space to deeply reflect on myself. I need to prioritise time to exercise first—not after the laundry or the housework is done—even if it’s just 10 to 15 minutes, because it makes me feel good.”
🌿 “The workshop motivated me to get back to my Zumba and yoga classes and take better care of myself.”
🌿 “It was a very, very good opportunity for self-reflection. It’s very easy in my job to get bogged down in the details and just focus on getting things done… the session reminded me to focus on what really matters.”

💫 Together, we had so much FUN while deepening our wellbeing knowledge through a mind–body approach:
✨ We began with the Emotional Seasons™, shifting from the old idea of “good vs bad” emotions to embracing a new WAY OF BEING: “it’s OK to feel this way.”
✨ We explored each educator’s goals for the next 3 months, creating a clear personal compass for growth.
✨ We reviewed the Energetic Cups—reflecting on how we use our physical, sensory, emotional, mental, and social energy each day. From here, educators recognised how precious their energy is and that they have the power to choose where to pour it.
✨ We practiced an embodied reset process, calming the nervous system and strengthening our cups from the inside out.

My heart is filled with gratitude for working with this team 💛 I feel deeply honoured to create safe spaces for educators to reconnect with themselves, their profession, and with one another.

When educators are nourished and recharged, the ripple effects are felt by children, families, and the whole community. 🌸
