The VicTESOL early childhood education series will focus on families and communities as a resource for growing and strengthening the development of bi/multilingual children.
The series will engage with key Australian early childhood documents and frameworks including the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), the Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework (VEYLDF) and the recently released VCAA resource Supporting Bilingualism, Multilingualism and Language Learning in the Early Years.
This series is made possible through a generous grant from The Foundation of Graduates in Early Childhood Studies at AGECS.
