Developing Acknowledgements with children

One way of contributing to creating culturally safe environments is to embed Acknowledgements into your programs. Are you looking to develop a contextualised Acknowledgement of Country with the children you work with? Come and learn why this is important and the protocols that should be followed. Learn when and how to use an Acknowledgement and how to involve children in the process so you can develop an Acknowledgement that is meaningful for your site.
