OUR STAFF

 

As parents, Management Committee members want to ensure that programs offered by the pre-school are of the highest quality.  The quality of a pre-school’s program and its atmosphere of fun and caring are determined by the quality and dedication of staff.  At Wauchope Preschool Kindergarten we have highly qualified Teachers (university educated) and Assistants.  All our staff love working with children and are dedicated to implementing the preschool’s mission and philosophy.  Our Director has many years experience in preschools as a Director/Teacher and she will be your main point of contact.  She can also assist you if you ever want to contact committee members.   Our Director and staff are:
