Thank you for looking after my son. My four year old initially struggled to adopt to his new environment. But the educators and the manager are very friendly, professional and supportive. He was well taken care of and has learned a lot. Special thanks to Manu for doing all the hard work in helping him to develop his social skills. She pays special attention to each and every kid and make plans catering to their individual learning needs. Her speech at the graduation ceremony was touching and clearly shows how deeply she loves her kids.
Thank you to all staff for giving a wonderful learning experience. I am sure you have laid a strong stepping stone with your excellent curriculum and fun filled activities. Cannot complete this review without mentioning their previous manager Santina for being kind, caring and friendly too.
Wishing the very best to all the staff who work hard everyday to make this centre serve its purpose to the community.
