OUR PASSIONATE STAFF
We are immensely proud of our team of dedicated educators, many of whom have been with our preschool for over ten years. They are the backbone of our centre, creating the warm, safe and loving environment that our children thrive from.
Drawing from the Circle of Security attachment model, we structure our team so that each classroom of twenty children has three staff, with each child assigned a primary carer who runs their small group times and oversees their development and growth at preschool. This provides consistency and helps children develop a secure attachment with a key educator at preschool.
We are very fortunate to have an Outdoor Educator who imparts a passion for the environment to our children. We also have a very small selection of casual staff who fill in for extended or sick leave to ensure consistency and stability of the learning environment.
Our Director

TRICIA BROWN
Tricia is the passionate Nominated Supervisor and leader of our Preschool , working in partnership with our talented staff, our Board and families to deliver an excellent educational and care program.
Tricia has taught in Community Based Preschools for over 25 years and is a strong believer that "Children thrive when families and educators work together in partnership to support young children's learning." (EYLF 2012)
"My goal is to have a relationship with each one of the children each year. I can truly say that I have never met any two children the same. They are all amazingly curious, clever and capable. Taking the time to find out what makes each one really shine is always worth the journey."
