🚨 Last call for Annual Conference presenters! 🚨

Have you been thinking, "Maybe I should submit a session..." but haven't quite gotten around to it?

Consider this your sign. ✨

You don't need to be a keynote speaker or have all the answers. If you have a strategy that's worked, a lesson sequence teachers love, a leadership journey to share, or an idea that has made a difference for students, others want to learn from you.

Our conference is strengthened by the diverse experiences and expertise of educators from across WA. Your voice matters.

If you've been sitting on an idea, we'd love to hear it. Take the leap and submit your proposal today.

📅 Presenter applications close soon.
