Early Childhood Educators’ Day is a chance to acknowledge the incredible work educators do to support children’s learning and development.
This year, the national celebration takes place on Wednesday 2 September. It’s a great time to recognise and thank educators across the state.
How to celebrate
There are many simple and meaningful ways you can mark the day and get families and children involved. You can:
- add your service to the map of services taking part
- organise an activity or morning tea to celebrate your team
- put up posters in your communal areas to let your families and team know the day is coming up
- put a notice to families in your email newsletter
- encourage children and their families to do something special such as making a homemade card or contributing to a communal appreciation wall.

Share stories of your educators
If you have a story you’d like to share about an educator at your service and the impact of their work, get in touch with our communications team using the email address below.
You may also like to ask the children at your service about their educators and what they enjoy doing with them.
We’ll promote their story as part of our Early Childhood Educators’ Day celebrations, or in a future edition.
