Lorraine and her team at Tots Corner have been inspired by the pedagogy of Reggio Emilia as a provocation interfaced with Te Whāriki for onwards of 13 years. They believe the Reggio Approach has offered a new paradigm for early childhood education, to be places and spaces for political and ethical practices, not places of technical practice and the transmission of knowledge. They continue to be challenged by the Pedagogy of Listening and creating environments that both challenge and inspire children and teachers to share understanding and interpretations. Lorraine is the Reggio Children International Network Representative for REANZ.
