10.30am Embracing STEM without embracing new plastic

In this hands on interactive workshop we’ll explore maths, music, science and art through the power of reuse!

Session B - 1 - 4 pm

Creating beautiful learning environments using repurposed materials

Tracey Sharp, ECF Group

As a qualified early childhood teacher and interior architect, Tracey will share her insights on the importance of providing beautiful spaces where children can have fun, experiment and learn.

She will give you tips on how to reuse what you already have, and where to sustainably source anything you need to add. It doesn’t have to be new to achieve the desired effect.
