About us
fka Children's Services (fkaCS) is a not-for-profit organisation with a long history of supporting Early Childhood Education and Care services, dating back to 1908. fkaCS promotes the rights of all children to actively participate in high-quality early childhood education and care that recognises and values diversity and contributes to social cohesion across the community. fkaCS advocates and supports the provision of high quality early childhood education and care including Children’s Cultural and Linguistic Rights through the provision of advocacy, consultancy and resources. fkaCS began as the Free Kindergarten Union (FKU) in 1908. The FKU was at the forefront of the early childhood education movement and had a major role in instigating many significant early childhood initiatives including the establishment of the first Kindergarten Teachers College (now part of Melbourne University), the formation of a national association for early childhood (which evolved to Early Childhood Australia) and were the original trustees for the Lady Gowrie Centre in Victoria in the late 1930s.

Yesterday, we had the privilege of hosting In Conversation with Claire Warden alongside some incredible fkaCS members. The day kicked off with an Acknowledgement of Country by Subik Baso, set against the inspiring backdrop of CERES. From there, we embarked on an insightful journey, exploring the powerful connection between language and the natural world. A huge thank you to Claire Warden, @semannslattery for bringing Claire to Australia, Subik Baso, and @ceresbrunswick for creating an unforgettable experience filled with learning and reflection!
