Message from the Director


This is our first newsletter in 2022 and while the new year has brought new challenges to the early childhood sector, we are excited to share news about initiatives and projects within the REEaCh Hub. Two key pieces of our work this year will be the commencement of the EDGE Study (launched in November 2021) and the implementation of the Early Learning Teaching Trial which commenced in December (see more information below). We continue to work in partnership with our research network on the child wellbeing priority area. We are currently reaching out to members of the network to work with us on co-designing the next stage of this project. Follow the link below to let us know if you are interested in being a part of this research experience.

We are looking forward to launching our 2022 seminar series in April. We hope you will be able to join us for Suzy Edwards and Karen McLean’s webinar discussing their ARC Linkage Project with Playgroup Victoria. Look for the links to our recent research briefs and publications in this newsletter and we will continue to share these with you in the coming months.

All the best for a safe and successful year ahead.

Professor Tricia Eadie
