The Home Interaction Program for Parents and Youngsters (HIPPY) program provides training for parents to become their child’s first teacher and to prepare children for school.
Member for Calare Andrew Gee opened the conference.
“The thing I really like about this program, it works on a number of different levels,” Mr Gee said.
“It helps to educate kids before preschool and supports parents to educate their own kids.
“Not everyone can afford to send their kids to preschool. It gives parents the tools they need to give their kids a great start in those early years before preschool.”
