UniSA Alumni
The University has established the de Lissa Early Childhood fund to support a prize to acknowledge the most outstanding undergraduate student who has completed an early childhood education degree program (or specialization) and who has also successfully completed Professional Experience placements in both child care and preschool settings for children aged between birth and five years of age. The fund has been made possible by the generosity of The de Lissa Association of Early Childhood Graduates Inc. following the formal closure of the Association in 2011. The annual prize will be named in honor of Lillian de Lissa and her work in establishing kindergartens and early childhood teacher education in South Australia.
