Dear SAALED Members and Friends,

As we approach one of the highlights of the SAALED calendar, we are excited to invite our members and friends to the 2026 SAALED AGM, Annual Seminar and Networking Event. This year’s theme, Boundaries with Heart, promises a thought-provoking exploration of connection, belonging, affirmation, and the human side of education.
We are privileged to welcome three outstanding speakers: Julia Dunn, who will challenge us to rethink boundaries in modern classrooms; Prof. Jonathan Jansen, who will explore the concept of a pedagogy of love and its impact on learning; and Stuart West, who will share insights into the power of affirmation, belonging, and possibility. Together, they offer a programme that is both inspiring and deeply relevant to educators, parents, and support professionals.

If there is one professional learning event to attend this year, this is it. We look forward to welcoming you to a day of learning, reflection, networking and renewed inspiration.  Guests can look forward to thoughtfully curated goodie bags, delicious snacks and meals, and the beautiful setting at Dainfern College as the hosts of this year’s Annual Seminar.
