Rebeccah is currently a Team Leader at Silverdale School, and has been responsible for the implementation and development of the play-based learning culture in it’s early years.

Since 2016, the school has shared its model with upwards of 200 visiting principals and teachers. Rebeccah has attended conferences in NZ and Australia and has been responsible for setting up a successful professional learning group on Auckland’s North Shore and Hibiscus Coast.

Rebeccah shares her story from when she first started using play in the classroom, to now where she has seen behavioural issues slip away, kids love of school grow, and her own love of learning ignited.
