Event description

Connecting Through Play

Our fourth conference is building on the legacy of forging a positive view of neurodiversity, emphasising the inherent value and strengths of our unique differences and our common humanity. One of our defining features is the blend of delegate experience across education, health and family life, matched with presenters who represent professional expertise and neurodivergent experience to create a rich dialogue that is leading the conversation in Australia around best practice.

Presentations cover the following streams:

  1. Neurodivergent Life
  2. Learning and Neurodevelopmental Disorders*
  3. Engagement with/Approaches for Neurodevelopmental Disorders*


Join us as we explore the opportunities to connect, learn and grow through play!
*Usage of the term Disorders for our conference is intended to align with current DSM-5-TR terminology. The approach of our conference is to highlight 'differences' in neurodevelopment.
