The possum and wombat rooms will have some special Children's Week activities planned also (end of October).

Such a warm and friendly atmosphere at Friendship Square. 😊😊 My daughter has just moved from up to the 3 year old room and was met with a warm hug and a day in the vege garden! The educators knew we had been gardening at home, so this consideration made my day. The communication is fantastic, and they put on some outstanding fundraisers.😁 HIGHLY recommended.

My son has been attending Friendship Square for nearly 3 years now. The staff are like an extended family to us, as it's a small centre where everyone knows every child and parent. We always feel that they are collaborating with us to make sure our child's needs are looked after, and they are constantly working to create new learning experiences for the kids. Highly recommend.
