Magazine Archive
Before its digital revamp in September 2024, Swings & Roundabouts was a quarterly magazine distributed to centres across the country. Our online format now allows us to deliver the same valuable content more conveniently and sustainably.
Want to submit an article?
Our readership is primarily early childhood education teachers, centre managers, centre owners and committee members of independently owned early childhood centres. We like to publish material that is practical and hands-on, the kind of thing that a teacher or manager can easily apply to the day-to-day activities of running a centre.
We invite article submissions from ECE centres, academics and sector experts.
