Early Years Training in Haringey

Posted 27 May at 10:17 am in Verna Wilkins, news

An enthusiastic group of Haringey teachers took part in a training day this week, which included a talk by Tamarind founder Verna Wilkins and Commissioning Editor Patsy Isles. The teachers were given a brief history of the list, heard why multicultural books are so important in the classroom and how the books can be used to support teaching.

The teachers were buzzing after the talk with one saying ‘I could have listened all afternoon.’ All teachers took a catalogue and Tamarind posters away with them for their classrooms, and many signed up for the e-newsletter.

Verna will be speaking to Ealing’s early years practitioners in July, at the launch of the ‘Building Futures, Believing in Children’ booklet.
