Learning Begins at Birth — An Interactive and Educational Experience
ARCQE is excited to welcome you to our 17th Annual Child Day Conference, taking place virtually on November 19–21, 2026.
This year’s conference theme is:
“Learning Begins at Birth” — Honouring Every Child’s Right to Education From the Early Years Forward.
Framed around UNCRC Articles 28 & 29 — the Right to Education and the Aims of Education, this year’s three-day experience will invite educators, leaders, and advocates to explore how we can honour children’s rights through learning, relationships, care, policy, participation, and citizenship.
Across three days, we will explore:
Day 1: Early Learning as a Continuum of Education — Spaces Between that Matter Most
Day 2: Care Is a Right — Challenging the Policies That Leave Children Behind
Day 3: Mighty Learners, Mighty Citizens — How Rights of Children are Shaped, Shared, and Sustained
Join us for meaningful conversations, inspiring speakers, interactive learning, reflection, and opportunities to connect with a community committed to ensuring every child is seen, heard, valued, and supported from the very beginning.
