Gracie Munari and Kelly Sweeting presented the amazing benefits of the intergenerational program at the recent 2019 Early Education Conference, and they shared many of the unexpected, heartfelt moments they have experienced when the children are interacting with the residents.
The upcoming Open Door session will be presented by Kelly Sweeting and runs from 5.30pm – 7.30pm at our Docklands Early Learning Centre. The session costs $65 per person.
