Our Very Own Early Intervention Educator, Margaret - A Westfield local hero 2021

15/10/2021

 
​
​We are excited to acknowledge Senior Early Intervention Educator (EIE), Margaret Malzard's outstanding 28-year career at the Champion Centre. We know you'll want to join us, to congratulate her as one of the three overall winners at the 2021 Westfield Local Heroes initiative. This is a great accolade and we couldn't be more proud.

We'd like to give a huge SHOUT OUT to all of you who took the time to vote and share this campaign. Although Margaret was clearly uncomfortable with the outpouring of praise and admiration, she always had her sights firmly on the $10k prize, which will support our EIE programme.

Margaret and our team of EIE's work tirelessly behind the scenes travelling to and from preschools and schools throughout Canterbury where they support children to take their place in their community early childhood centres. They facilitate learning and development, based on the Champion Centre programme, in that environment alongside the teachers. As children approach the transition to school period, EIEs skilfully support the move from preschool to school, helping lay the strongest foundations possible. They link with teachers and teacher aides so they can pick up the torch to inspire further goals and achievements.

It's a thoughtful process, always with the best possible outcomes for the child at its core and can't be achieved without embracing the new teachers as a vital part of the progression, and supporting them to read the cues and continue to realise the potential in every child. They play a pivotal role which enables a child and their family to take the next step in their education journey, with trust, hope, and confidence.
 
When all is said and done, Margaret and her team perform the 'finale', in our Champion children's intervention and transition to school. They are the end that leads to the brightest of beginnings. 

Congratulations and thank-you Margaret for all you do! ​
