Our educators have been sprinkling their magic over our learning spaces during the holidays, preparing and resetting environments for our children and families to explore together.

We are excited to recommence preschool tomorrow morning and warmly welcome thirteen brand new preschoolers to our Wallaroo Preschool Centre family.

We wonder what curiosities and questions our children will bring as they explore and discover in our new spaces. We look forward to a wonderful term of learning together!

A huge thank you to Mattner Earthmovers for supplying and installing fresh bark chips in our outdoor play space! The new bark chips not only look fabulous, but most importantly, ensure our play space remains a safe and inviting environment for our children to play and explore. We appreciate your prompt and professional service.

Today is National Sorry Day.

On this day each year, we reflect on the immeasurable harm done by the forced removal of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children from their families and communities, which we now refer to as the Stolen Generations.

We acknowledge the strength and resilience of Stolen Generations survivors, their families and communities, and recommit to playing our part in the process of healing and reconciliation.

Every child deserves to feel valued, respected, and heard. That’s why the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child sit at the heart of our philosophy—guiding us to create a warm, caring, and inclusive environment for all children and families. Together, we’re building a place where every child truly belongs and can thrive. 💙🌟
