Last week we had a visit from Queanbeyan Fire and Rescue. The children were excited to welcome the firefighters to preschool and learn about fire safety in a fun and engaging way. They discovered the difference between safe and unsafe fires, learnt that 000 is the emergency number to call if they ever need help, and practised what to do if their clothes catch on fire by remembering to "Stop, Drop and Roll," we also learnt about the importance of having a safe family meeting place, such as the letterbox, if there is ever a fire at home. The children were also fascinated to explore the firefighters' protective uniform, look at the fire truck, and to see the specialised equipment firefighters use to help keep our community safe and help save lives. It was a valuable hands-on learning experience that helped build the children's understanding of staying safe in emergencies.

With enrolments offers starting up next month, we are sharing our 2027 timetable for families to start making note of classroom/preschool preferences.

QDPA offer a mix of 2 and 3 day programs across our four preschools - some classes do fill up quickly, so we encourage families to have a couple of options ready in case your first option has been taken.

Just a reminder, once you have secured a spot with QDPA, we do not do swaps or changes to other classes or preschools.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, the open day scheduled for this Saturday will be postponed. We will share details of a new date once we can lock this in, but will certainly aim to have this run prior to enrolment offers in August.

Proud to help bring colour and connection to one of Queanbeyan & District Preschool Association's preschools down in Karabar, NSW.

Featuring artwork by Marrawuy Journeys, the design reflects community, families, educators, and children coming together in a shared journey towards reconciliation.

These protective pads were brought to life by our incredibly talented team, with a focus on durability, quality, and safety.

Thanks for the kind words, we love being part of projects like this.
