It has been such a privilege over the past few months to deliver professional development sessions and collaborate with so many incredible organisations and educational spaces in our community. I’ve been blown away by how open and eager everyone has been to learn more about supporting Autistic, ADHD, and PDAer children.
✨ With Bright Futures, I shared two presentations supporting parents and professionals in understanding and supporting young PDAers.
✨ I joined the Kinder Inclusion Support Team at Mallee Family Care to explore Autistic inclusion and support across local kindergartens.
✨ At TAFE Kids, I delivered two sessions focused on identifying, reframing our understanding of, and supporting Autistic and ADHDer children in kinder and daycare settings.
✨ At Red Cliffs Primary School, I worked with staff on reframing our understanding of autism in the classroom, and with parents on children’s brain development, emotional wellbeing, and parenting support.
✨ I’ve also been collaborating with the wonderful team at Sunraysia Toy Library to develop their inclusion statement and staff handbook, following their selection as a pilot site for the Disability Access Inclusion and Support (DAIS) Program.
✨ And coming up soon, another PDA session at Red Cliffs Primary School that I’m really looking forward to!
It is so rewarding to see schools, services, and families leaning in with such eagerness to learn and openness to change. I’m so grateful to be part able to connect with so many wonderful people and teams leaning into inclusivity and working together to create spaces that truly supports neurodivergent children.
