Episode #1 Behind the why

Hey CAFS Crew!

In the first episode of The Learning Network Podcast I chat about why I created a Podcast to support Community & Family Studies teachers across NSW and share a little bit about me, Kelly Bell your CAFS Coach & Mentor, and the professional learning The Learning Network offers to CAFS teachers.

So a little bit about me first and foremost, I am a daughter, I'm a wife and I'm a mum to two beautiful girls living on the sunny Central Coast of New South Wales. My second love in life is education. I always wanted to be a teacher, it's in my blood.

I have spent most of my career in secondary education, dabbled in tertiary education for a short three month stint and have spent the last ten years supporting the professional learning of teachers across NSW and Australia. The majority of my teaching journey has been as a secondary high school teacher in both Catholic and public schools sharing my love of health, physical education and wellbeing in all courses in Years 7-12 under the Personal Development, Health and Physical Education Key Learning Area with a special passion for a Year 11 and 12 course called Community and Family Studies (CAFS).

My hope for The Learning Network is to support teachers in education by connecting, learning and growing together to be the best educators we can be and to make a difference with the students and learners with whom we work.

So a huge welcome to The Learning Network. I can't wait for you to join me on this journey and I feel completely honoured to be able to share my voice and my passion for CAFS and education in general.
