Team work/ Standard 7 Create and maintain safe and supportive learning environments/Standard 8 Foster positive and productive relationships with families and the community/Standard 9 Contribute effectively to professional teams.
Teamwork is the relationship between different parties within a workplace. Almost every task within a workplace needs the support from other parties if a desired outcome is expected (Commonwealth of Australia, 2006, p.16).
Teamwork and communication ‘go hand in hand’ as they both are heavily reliant on working with other parties within the school community. I participated in a team building mini golf session on the student free day for the sole purpose of ‘getting to know’ and build relationships outside of the school environment with other staff members. This in turn gave me the necessary foundations to build and contribute effectively to professional teams.
As an active team member of the school community I recently helped a year 6 teacher and students in my final practicum with preparations for the Tournament of the Minds competition. This allowed me to interact with children from a different year level, and foster positive and productive relationships with other students at the school. The school fete has enabled me to build relationships with parents, whether working on the stall together or as a customer.

‘Kym has always contributed effectively to professional teams, and she has shown this through our juncture meetings, planning meetings and discussions around moderation of children’s work’ (Cox, personal communication, September, 2011).
