Welcome Tamara

Today I had the pleasure of showing Dr Tamara Cumming around The Treehouse. The Early Childhood Research Group was founded by Tamara in 2020 and she invited me to co-lead it. She was the first co-chair of the Early Childhood Voices Conference (ECV2020) and helped write the application for the Early Childhood Interdisciplinary Research (ECIR) Sturt Scheme. She has been working at Macquarie University for the past 2.5 years. We have continued to collaborate - last month this chapter was published:
