Early Childhood Educators’ Day is observed in Australia on the first Wednesday in September. It recognises the work of educators in long day care, family day care, kindergarten and preschool services, and their contribution to children’s learning, wellbeing and development. The day encourages families, services and communities to say thank you.

Event Suggestions:
• Creating thank-you cards or appreciation displays for early childhood educators
• Sharing stories about care, learning and children’s development
• Hosting a small community celebration recognising educators’ contributions
