We are ReMida Perth

Beautiful Materials

Established in 2004, ReMida Perth is Western Australia's only Reggio-inspired creative reuse centre.  ReMida is an active part of the WA community, supporting the promotion and development of Reggio Emilia-inspired education, arts, and environmental activities across the State.

 

The ReMida concept originated in Reggio Emilia and includes a network of ReMida centres across Europe. Although each ReMida reflects the needs and opportunities tied to its specific cultural setting, it works toward a shared vision with the support of the original ReMida centre in Reggio Emilia. 

​

ReMida Perth was the first group outside Europe to be invited to join the ReMida network and is very conscious that this project is a lighthouse project in Western Australia and important to the whole community.
