• Would you like support with implementing a pedagogy of play in your infant classroom?
• Do you find it challenging providing opportunities for child-led play in your infant classroom?
• Do you feel you could benefit from the sharing of ideas for station teaching using concrete resources and active approaches ?

Why not join our Infant Teacher Community of Practice facilitated by Yvonne Flynn.  Yvonne is an experienced Infant education tutor, teacher, and Hibernia College Lecturer, who has successfully managed to continue a playful approach in her classroom.
