Many locals and students, both past and present, recently gathered to farewell the popular educator and wish her well on her new endeavours.

At its height, the preschool had an enrollment of 21 and has continued to rise and fall over the years, with many students moving through the local primary school and on to further and tertiary studies.

The centre is open two days per week and is continuing strongly under new director/teacher, and past local Michelle Partridge, and her team educator Caitlyn Coombes.

The preschool is currently taking enrolments for 2016 and can be contacted on 6587 4370 on Wednesdays and Fridays.
