Create a supportive environment for change<br />
Create an understanding amongst your staff and families of “why” physical activity and movement<br />
skills are important for your service to consider.<br />
Ideas for generating interest and support<br />
• Put up some newspaper snippets on the walls<br />
• Display key facts and attention grabbing information around the centre or include in newsletters<br />
Build on your strengths<br />
• Identify what you are already doing, what would be easiest to start doing and what things you<br />
might tackle in the future<br />
• Decide with staff and families, which things are the most important (it may not be possible<br />
for you to make all the changes required at once)<br />
• You might like to start with something that is familiar and easy<br />
What is working and what is not?<br />
• Work out what changes are working for your service and if they are effective<br />
• Ask yourself whether the changes meeting your service's needs. Are families, children and staff<br />
satisfied and happy with the changes?<br />
• Don’t be afraid to tweak what you are doing based on your reflections, feedback and any<br />
changing circumstances<br />
• The appropriateness of the information and suggestions regarding how you might use this for<br />
your service will depend on your service's philosophy, staff, facilities, and the needs of your<br />
children and families<br />
