This week’s recommendation is @Kristen.rb.peterson who is a play-based learning expert, keynote speaker and founder of Camp PLAY. Play is fundamental to our teaching and learning program at St Paul and a short conversation with any of our staff will highlight this.
Kristen’s work in the parenting space is impressive and I encourage you to spend some time looking at her Instagram page.
