Welcome to our second edition of Bedrock for 2025.
In this edition, we explore the benefits of “Grandfriends” programs, where young children and elderly people spend time socialising to build positive relationships and learn from each other.
Discover how to spark children’s curiosity to enhance their learning.
Find out how a new online tool can help you develop specialist knowledge and skills for teaching children under three.
This edition is packed with more great reads including how to manage the emotional labour of teaching, the key to thriving in regional and remote schools and developing a reconciliation action plan for your centre.
We hope you enjoy this edition of Bedrock and find it valuable for your professional practice.
We encourage you to share this edition with your colleagues and invite them to join the IEU. We are always stronger together.
