On behalf of @CurtinEducation I am thrilled to launch our position statement on #play and #playbasedlearning. Play is incredibly valuable and deserves to be embraced throughout family, community and educational contexts. We celebrate and support the right of all children to play.

We can all do more to promote children’s rights to privacy online through modelling safe and respectful practices. In the Conversation we discuss current approaches to consent to publish in schools @tiffani_apps @digitalchildau @uowresearch
