Last year a group of
Advisers and Link Teachers were able to attend the International Conference at
Reggio Emilia, Italy. Included was the
opportunity to study the provision for young children in the Pre-schools. It
was an amazing experience to observe the work of the educators in Reggio, who
claim with confidence that all children are ‘rich, strong and powerful
learners’.
Sightlines – the
English branch of ‘Reggio Children’ are hoping that they will be invited by
‘Reggio Children’ to organise a week’s study group to visit the Pre-schools in
Reggio Emilia sometime next year. We would very much like to apply for a group
of Norfolk Headteachers to be part of the group. The overall cost including
accommodation and travel will be in the region of £2000.
