Loretta Fern Fernando-Smith
Loretta Fernando-Smith
is an educator with more than 20 years of experience in international schools. She grew up between cultures, moving several times during her childhood. She is also the mother of two multi-racial, Cross Culture Kids. Her experiences of straddling several cultures as a child, adult, parent and educator have made her aware of how people negotiate belonging in different spaces. This tension drives her curiosity, inquiry and research into belonging. Loretta currently enjoys exploring the world with her four and five year old students and is passionate about including the voices, experiences and wisdom of young children in educational discourse. The case study presented in her chapter was completed as a part of a Masters through Research degree.
