The pre-school values Early Childhood Education and aims to see as many children as possible given opportunity and support in their early years.
“Our program has a strong cultural base, also focusing on literacy and numeracy awareness, transition to school and links to many local support agencies in the area to ensure our children get the best start we can provide,” said Michelle Hamilton of Wunanbiri.
“Our long-standing staff have all been employed at the centre for 10 years or more,” Ms Hamilton added. “This demonstrates their dedication to our children, families and community.”
The pre-school has three qualified Early Childhood teachers. Wunanbiri has been operating for over 30 years. It was established in the early 1970s, by Sister Mary Oliver of the Sisters of Mercy in Surry Hills.
Wunanbiri runs regular fundraisers in support of its programs. It receives limited government funding. “We are a non-profit organisation and also continue our service with small donations,” Ms Hamilton said.
On Sunday April 7 Wunanbiri will host a fundraising barbecue at Bunnings in Mascot. The support of the community would be greatly appreciated.
