On behalf of the South Metro Inclusion Support Team, we would like to wish everyone a very happy and safe Australia Day and hope you all have a lovely day off. Let us think about those who gave of themselves so that we could have a better life and also let us think of those less fortunate than ourselves and how truly lucky we are to live in a country that has so much to offer all who live here regardless of our abilities.
We wish you Peace

Role Modelling/Consultancy Service Visits
PSCWA have identified a need for change in delivering customised support in 2010. PSCWA will be encouraging services to attend Calendar PD workshops, instead of organising additional customised evening PD sessions at individual services. PSCWA will now be offering child care services who access and attend a Calendar Professional Development workshop the opportunity to request a individual consultancy visit at their service as a follow up during the day with the same facilitator that facilitated the Professional Development workshop. The focus of this support is for the facilitator to provide role modelling with early childhood educators on the floor and therefore directly linking theory to practice.
PSCWA have decided to offer this type of support because of recent research that has identified the importance of continual learning and the ability to apply newly learnt skills to enhance positive outcomes for children and families.
To book this session call the Helpline: 1800 783 768 or follow this link http://pscwa.org.au/Forms.aspx to complete a registration form. Cost $60 per hour.
For Childcare services please ensure this information is distributed to all staff.
For Family Day Care Schemes please forward to all carers for their information.
