Daily Reflections involving collaboration with community

Hi
I am currently studying the CHC50113 Diploma of Early Childhood, Early Childhood Bridging Program for Primary Trained Teachers. I am currently working on Cluster 4 Part D – Reflective Practice where I have to professionally evaluate and reflect on the implementation of my plan in particular how I am:
• Consulting and/or collaborating with the children about the program - easy!
• Consulting and/or collaborating with families about the program - easy!
• Consulting and/or collaborating with your colleagues about the program - easy!
• Consulting and/or collaborating with the community about the program - HUH???
I have conducted my experience in a Family Day Care Center and am having great difficulty reflecting on how I have consulted or collaborated with the community about my program. I really have know idea how to reflect on this, as I haven't involved or consulted with any community in my planning- my definition of community is other services or organisations in the local area. Does anyone have suggestions as how I can interpret 'community' in order to answer this question.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

This will help you give you an understanding on the "community" and how to collaborate with them about the program:

Community Engagement

Hope this helps,

Hi Lorina
Thanks for this forwarding this information. It's funny, but I have read this newsletter before, but didn't get any ideas from it the first time around. But now I've got three ideas to go on from.
Thanks again.
