Sherman Lake YMCA Outdoor Center’s Post

My career seems to ebb and flow, crossing the blurred lines of what education 'is'. I am constantly considering the web that makes up teaching and learning, community success, and all of the stakeholders who are involved. My struggle lies in being surrounded by others who don't think about education in this way; they are more linear, staying inside their lane or topic area. It's been a struggle, let me tell you. https://lnkd.in/gJaEASXm

As we enter a new week, let's remember the fundamental truth that every child has the right to learn. At Evangeline’s Care and Wellness Foundation (ECWF), we are committed to breaking down the barriers that prevent children with special needs from accessing quality education. In too many places, children with special needs are overlooked and excluded from classrooms, missing out on opportunities that every child deserves. But we believe in a future where every child, regardless of their abilities, can walk into a classroom and feel empowered, supported, and capable of achieving great things. This Week’s Focus: We’re shining a light on the importance of inclusive education and how it can transform lives. Through advocacy, community support, and dedicated resources, we aim to ensure that every child, especially those with special needs, has the opportunity to thrive academically and socially. How You Can Help: Join us in this mission. Follow ECWF on LinkedIn, and Facebook to stay updated on how we're working to make education accessible for all. Share our posts, spread the word, and let’s work together to create a world where every child’s right to learn is honored.

Some people believe that purpose discovery is one daunting and herculean task of travelling through 7 seas, mountains and hills. But the truth is that purpose discovery can be easy and straightforward if you know your ropes. Purpose discovery stems from self-discovery. To discover your purpose, discover yourself. As a parent who desires to raise purpose-driven ch1ldr£n, there is a need to start exposing your ch1ldr£n to activities that will introduce them to themselves. This entails understanding their personalities, strengths, uniqueness, abilities, gifts and potential. By this, they will understand who they are and what they can do and can easily create unique paths that can lead to successful and purposeful living. Please don’t wait until your ch1ldren become adults before they can create their unique paths. Start early to introduce them to the real essence of life. If you are a purposeful parent who desires to raise a purpose-driven child who can make wise choices in life and create unique paths for successful and purposeful living, book a registration slot today for your child to join the Purposeful Children Academy.

**** South Australian primary and secondary school educators... I have $2500 to giveaway to you! **** This year, we have a pretty fantastic bucket of funding for schools* to access to run our award-winning Activate program thanks to the generosity of the Day Family Foundation. The funding covers $2500 of the program leaving a teeny, tiny shortfall of $950 to be covered by you. What kind of missions could your students embark on through this fully resourced (and supported) program? “As an explorer, develop a project that brings a curiosity or passion you have to life, and share this with your community.” Or “As an entrepreneur, create your own ‘side hustle’ as a way to make money whilst still at school.” Or “As a changemaker, share an innovative idea that tackles one of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals.” And more. To find out more about Activate, and read the fine print on eligibility for the funding, head here: https://lnkd.in/g6eKP9aR Interested? Get in touch. We'd love to work with you to unleash passion, potential and agency in your classrooms.

Did you know that there are more than 100 SOURCES of federal funding that exist for after-school programs? 😱 Grants like these are essential for the sustainability of out-of-school-time (OST) programs. One of OST programs' most popular and prominent federal grants is the Nita M. Lowery 21st Century Community Learning Center Grant, otherwise known as the 21CCLC program.
