Services
The Centre has a Management Committee made up of the Director, a staff representative and parents of the children. The Committee meets once a month to talk about the Centres finances, maintenance issues and general decisions concerning the direction of the Centre. All of our key staff have a qualification ranging from a Cert 3 in Children's Services, Advanced Diploma in Children Services and Teaching Degrees.
Our fantastic chef Jasmine provides a nutritionally adequate menu that meets at least 50% of a child's Recommended Daily Intake. Main meals would include red meat/white meat or a vegetarian meal, together with iron containing foods such as wholemeal bread, broccoli, cauliflower, baked beans or lentils.
The Centre is managed by a committee of parents, staff and local community representatives. Members are elected each year at the Annual General Meeting. Parent based management provides for families to be involved in an advisory, consultative and decision making capacity. The success of the centre is therefore very much dependent on the involvement of parent users.

Report
We had our two boys in here for a couple of months emergency because we live remote and had to be in Adelaide for twins being born. The staff were fantastic and extremely accommodating given our circumstances. The boys loved going, great fun and educational. The boys bonded with the staff who were always friendly, welcoming and a pleasure to have minding our kids. Choosing a child care centre is a big thing as its your kids that you are handing over, so i was delighted they were able to take our lads. I'd give far more than 5 stars if it were possible. Can't thank these people enought. Great place
