COURAGE TO CARE FAMILY IS GROWING
Over 20 individuals from a wide variety of backgrounds attended our two recent Introductory Sessions. All seemed enthusiastic to help support the work of Courage to Care in some way and many indicated an interest in participating in the upcoming Professional Development Day for new and old facilitators (Sunday February 8th.)
If you are interested in finding out more about this important project, please contact us by phone or email and register your interest in joining our next Introductory session.
COURAGE TO CARE & JEWISH MUSEUM
For the month of May 2009 Courage to Care will be on display at the Gross Gallery at the Jewish Museum of Australia Alma Road St. Kilda. Students visiting during this time will have the opportunity to be introduced to aspects of Jewish life, view the temporary Exhibition “Super-heroes and Schlemiels” as well as participating in a modified version of the Courage to Care Program where they will learn of real life heroes. Enquiries can be made by contacting Courage to Care (Vic.) office or the Jewish Museum of Australia.

TEACHERS CONFERENCES
Each year Courage to Care mounts displays at the annual conferences of relevant Teachers Associations. Thus, we have recently attended the two day conference of the History Teachers Association of Victoria and shortly will attend both the Victorian Association of Teachers of English and Social Education Victoria.
However, the Courage to Care message is relevant to ALL parts of the curriculum and so perhaps we should also attend the conferences of maths and science teachers.
