If you are interested in enriching and innovating your teaching practice by taking it beyond the classroom (EOTC), this conference is for you. You can expect an engaging, thought-provoking and hands-on two days. The conference is being delivered simultaneously in 5 centres across Aoteaora and has been designed for all educators (ECE through to secondary) and all learning areas.

When: 28–29 September.

Across the 2 days:
Day 1 will involve all five centres streaming together online to participate in a range of activities. You will engage with the ideas raised by our keynote speakers and unpack them through engaging discussion and activities.
