We currently have 2 girls attending Killara Park KU, and will be sending our 3rd there soon. I love everything about Killara Park KU has to offer.
It's situated in a leafy area next to a park, giving kids lots to explore inside and out. They have an amazing outdoor play area, an undercover sandpit & cubby house, a well equipped art studio and veggie patch with lots of freebies at harvest time. Inside the classroom, the play ranges from puzzles to craft, and teaching from imaginary play to hands on experimentation. I also especially love the way technology is incorporated into their day to day activities.
But above all, I love the staff there. Their commitment to the children is outstanding, they genuinely take an interest in their activities and take time to care for the children's needs. Their approach to learning shows the attention to detail and makes it creative and fun. Not only do they learn through play and exploring, they also encourage them to take responsibility to build character as they grow up.
A few times when it was raining or when I had 2 young kids sleeping in the car, they would offer for me to call them in advance and would bring my daughter to meet me at the carpark saving me lots of time, mess and tantrums. I just really appreciate the lengths they go to, to do these kinds of things, which makes the school community feel very tight knit.
If you are looking for a preschool, I would highly recommend this one.
