Wow… what a morning!! 💛

A huge thank you to everyone who came along to celebrate 60 years of kindy with us — it was so special seeing so many familiar faces and sharing such a big milestone together.

Every beautiful thing has a beginning… and ours started with one mum who simply didn’t want her little boy to feel lonely.

From that small, heartfelt wish grew something truly special - a place where children are welcomed, friendships are formed, and little personalities are free to shine.

Our kindy has become so much more than just a learning space. It’s a community, a village, a second home filled with laughter, messy play, big feelings, and even bigger memories.

It all started with love, and that same love continues to shape every corner of our kindy today.

Take a moment to watch this beautiful story from the mum who started it all — it’s a reminder of how something so simple can grow into something so meaningful.

We’re so proud of where we began… and even more excited for everything still to come. 💛
