Catherine Field Preschool
Proudly community managed. An affordable, quality education since 1975.
Catherine Field Preschool is a small not for profit community preschool established around 1975 by the community to fill a need for the children of the local area.
We are proudly community managed; parents have played a vital role in the operation of the preschool over the past 45 years. Maintaining affordable quality education for future generations.
The children who attend Catherine Field Preschool engage in play-based learning. Through play they learn and develop the skills to prepare them for life beyond preschool.
Children attend on a 2 or 3-day basis:
- Monday/Tuesday
- Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday
- Thursday/Friday
- Wednesday/Thursday/Friday
From 8:15am to 3:45pm and in accordance with government school terms.
Our vision is to create a nurturing environment where children, families, and staff are comfortable. Being yourself is welcomed and celebrated.
We use the outdoors as a learning space in all weather, so that children can experience the natural environment.
Children become environmentally aware whilst learning skills that they will use throughout their lives. Connected to the land, and our local market gardening community.
Children develop a strong knowledge of, and have an ingrained respect for, the traditional owners of our land.
Our vision is to grow confident children with a love of learning.
