Following a change of leadership the ethics and honesty within the school became concerning. I had a great experience to begin with but after moving away for medical reasons with my child and my child returning a few months later, he began raising concerns about certain things and extremely unhappy. I attempted to discuss this and other matters of concern but unsucessful. I later discovered my Sons attendance record was incorrect and false information recorded. There are some fabulous educators and support staff at the school, but sadly I did hear similar stories from other single parents of children at the school, some of whom removed their children mid year.

Transferred from another childcare to this one. Both kids are very happy there. All educators are kind and caring. A good childcare I'd recommend to anyone.
