Late afternoon events sound more favourable until 30 minutes before you are about to leave the office and that urgent deadline suddenly becomes urgent, and you know you\u2019re not going anywhere. So, what is on offer? We are proposing <strong>Educate Plus Special Interest Groups (SIGs) <\/strong>during the Term 2 holiday break!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The <strong>SIGs <\/strong>will start with a light breakfast and an opportunity to mingle with colleagues, along with some of our Partners who will be in attendance to discuss their business solutions. Then we will move into two areas of discussion in a Round Table format:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Marketing &amp; Communications<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, covering topics such as content and video marketing, social media strategies for community engagement, using Facebook and Instagram Live for real-time engagement, and milestone celebrations.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Admissions<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, covering aspects of diversity, equity, and inclusion in Admissions, student retention strategies, and the impact of COVID-19 on enrolments.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Of course, you will have the opportunity to ask your own questions and receive answers from your peers in the industry. To cap it off, we will take a tour of the new development at Scotch College, the Purruna Spencer Newton Centre. You&#8217;ve probably heard plenty about this amazing building, so now&#8217;s your chance to see it up close! <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>SA\/NT Special Interest Groups:<\/strong> Thursday 20 July (Scotch College) &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.educateplus.edu.au\/epevent\/sa-nt-chapter-sharing-workshop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Register Here<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Looking beyond the school term, registrations are now open for our <strong>SA\/NT Summit<\/strong>, to be held at the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/discoveryevents.com.au\/venues\/adelaide-hills-convention-centre\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Adelaide Hills Convention Centre<\/a><\/strong> on 14-15 September.
