As we are a not-for- profit community organisation parent participation and help is essential to the functioning of the service. There are many ways in which parents can become involved within the service including:
- Volunteering for our Parent Management Committee (see below)
- In class Parent Roster- We encourage parents to attend Parent Roster once a term if possible. This can be for a couple of hours or for the whole day. We find this time assists with strengthening deep connections between our educators and families through time, seeing what is involved in a kindy day, supporting the kindergarten day and ultimately relationships are optimised. We believe that our relationships with parents are as important as our relationships with our children.
- We invite parents and extended families along to various centre functions during the year each year. This includes:
- Welcome BBQ (beginning of year)
- Mother’s Night
- Grandparents Morning
- Book Week celebrations
- Father’s Night
- Obstacle-a-thon
- Family Fun Day
- End of Year concert
