Over the last few months, Maree has been phasing into retirement after 30 years of dedicated service at Macarthur Preschool.
Affectionately known as our very own “glitter fairy,” Maree brought joy, laughter, and a touch of sparkle to Macarthur Preschool every single day. Her love of creativity inspired countless children, who enjoyed crafting, exploring, and learning by her side. She was also known for causing a ruckus by glitter-bombing others when they were distracted (we were never able to pull this off on her!).
Beyond the glitter and creativity, Maree’s commitment and professionalism have been truly exceptional. She was always organised, reliable, and took great pride in ensuring our environment was neat, welcoming, and a beautiful place for children to learn and grow. Her dedication to the children, families, and educators of Macarthur Preschool has made a lasting impact that will be felt for many years to come.
As Maree transitions into retirement, it is no surprise that she continues to give so generously of her time and talents. Volunteering at a local nursing home, she is now bringing joy and companionship to the older members of our community—spreading the same warmth and creativity that we have all been so lucky to experience.
Maree, thank you for all that you have given to Macarthur Preschool over the past 30 years. Your passion, care, and sparkle have left an enduring legacy. We wish you a long, happy, and healthy retirement filled with new adventures and continued fun.
You will always be part of our preschool family.✨
