Parental Involvement: Our kindergarten is a community based, not for profit centre. We rely heavily on parental involvement to assist in various aspects of running a successful kindergarten.

Parents are also encouraged to get involved by attending working bees and rostered duty. It is a great way to have informal parent/teacher discussion.
