This Inclusion Community of Practice is an evolution of the popular Inclusion Cafes. We plan on holding this event at a different preschool each term.
We extend this invitation to Preschool Directors and Educational or Inclusion Leaders to come together to network, share and learn from one another through a dynamic, focussed discussion on inclusive practices, resources and initiatives in preschools. Join your KU Preschool Inclusion Consultants for afternoon tea as we connect and celebrate inclusion, share some highlights, possibly discuss a few practice dilemmas.
This term, we would like to connect by:
- Discussing how we, as a group, would like these sessions to evolve.
- Hearing the host preschool’s reflection on recent inclusion initiatives.
- Sharing resources, questions, and success stories.
- Reflecting on any term 2 challenges and practical ways to support inclusion.
