24.01.2022 And that’s a wrap! Wow!!! What an incredible week of speakers, facilitators and attendees. You are all wonderful for giving time, energy and passion for the work of Putting Children First. Today we heard from excellent speakers about what we could do and think about for the future. Thank you to www.everychild.co, www.familymatters.org.au, www.familiesaustralia.org.au and www.dss.gov.au And of course thank you to our very own Teresa Scott as facilitator :) The subject was: Bui...lding Back Better, Together. And it is this last word that struck at the heart of things - TOGETHER. We really are all reaching for the same goal (and small ones along the way) and it is important that we join and tackle this together. A wonderful take-away. Thank you to www.everychild.co, www.familymatters.org.au, www.familiesaustralia.org.au and www.dss.gov.au A very very big thank you to all of you out there. You have populated the webinars and events, you have pledged, you have gotten involved, you have spread the word, you have asked questions, you have been open to discussion thank you for being part of what has been an incredibly busy and inspiring National Child Protection Week 2020 - Putting Children First. Let’s all carry on doing what we are doing and we’ll see you online soon! #ncpw #ncpw20 #playyourpart #nationalchildprotectionweek #PuttingChildrenFirst
