The power and promise of education

Education is the road that children follow to reach their full potential in life.

Yet many children in need around the Victoria  do not get a quality education where they can learn and develop. To advance learning, AARDO supports education programs for children in the classroom and at home.

  • We train teachers to engage their students through more effective teaching practices.
  • We coach parents and caregivers to help their children learn early on, so they are prepared to enter school.
  • We offer ways for parents and community volunteers to get kids reading and doing math outside of school hours.
  • We introduce children to the power of artistic expression — drawing, painting, and more — to help them heal, learn and do better in school.
  • We make sure that children don’t stop learning during a crisis, and we help to keep kids healthy so they don’t fall behind or drop out.
