Early Childhood educators from Chile

Four early childhood educators from Antofagasta are making last minute preparations for their trip to Sydney to participate in an intensive study tour being organised by the School of Education, at the University of Western Sydney.

 The educators are leading the expansion of the Futuro Infantil Hoy (FIH) program in Calama, Antofagasta and Tocopilla in northern Chile. UWS project leader, Associate Professor Christine Woodrow says an extensive program including visits to a variety of early childhood centres, master classes and  seminars  has been organised.

The educators will also be making a presentation about their implementation of FIH whilst in Sydney.
