NZCER, on behalf of Remuera Rotary, is pleased to announce Sue Hone as the recipient of the 2024 Margaret May Blackwell Fellowship!
“Neurodiverse ākonga - including those with ADHD, ASD, and dyslexia – face huge barriers in traditional educational settings,” Sue notes.
“While we’ve made some good progress here in Aotearoa, I hope that this Fellowship will help me understand, investigate and bring back crucial insights or approaches that can continue supporting these children in ECE settings.”
