Gill Connell
Gill Connell ran a highly successful “Moving to Learn” workshop at Christchurch City Libraries this year, and it was so educational and fun we wanted to share it with librarians nationwide. So we are!
Gill will speak about the importance of movement in relation to a child's cognitive development, which will be invaluable to librarians who are involved with library programmes for baby and toddlers. Gill has substantial experience in early childhood and primary education in New Zealand, and was New Zealand manager for GymbaROO for seven years. Gill is well-known throughout New Zealand for her educational expertise, and regularly runs professional development courses for early childhood and primary teachers.
