ACAA Children’s Activities Conference
TBC- Gold Coast
The event is for all those that work in the children’s activities industry. This could be dance teachers, football coaches, drama teachers, music teachers, swim coaches, and the list goes on! The day is about celebrating the opportunity to come together, to learn and be inspired by our incredible line-up of speakers and of course having some fun catching up with old and new friends within the industry. A perfect supportive networking event for people from all over Australia.
This is a day to step away from your teaching/coaching and your computer and focus on yourself and your business plans for 2023.
