Please write your child’s name on all their belongings.

Children should not bring these things:
- food containing nuts (some children have nut allergies that can be dangerous)
- unhealthy food or drink (lollies, chocolate, chips, fizzy drinks)

Playgroup
Our playgroup sessions will help prepare your child for preschool by giving them a wonderful introduction to our kindergarten. We provide a range of indoor and outdoor activities where your child can explore and make sense of their world through play. Families and parents are encouraged to help with set-up and pack-up, and will be supported by our staff. Our playgroup is for children from birth to 5 years old.
Please call us to talk about vacancies prior to coming. We will give you an orientation, enrolment forms and further information at your first session.
