From our Director Cassie Edwards

The Educators at Bellambi Point Community Preschool have a strong passion for educating children and providing the best possible care to them. We believe that the experiences children have in early childhood directly affect their lifelong development, therefore it is our priority that children have access to the best possible conditions whilst in our care.

All the educators at Bellambi are dedicated advocates for children and we use our own personal interests in sustainability, music, science, arts, technology and the community to support an ongoing program.

Developing professional partnerships is a key concept of our philosophy and we believe that building and maintaining these partnerships benefit the children, families and working environment.

What Parents are Saying About Bellambi Point Community Preschool

“The teachers at BPCPS are amazing! They are all so warm & welcoming. They have taught 3 of my children & to this day my daughters who have moved onto big school still share stories of their preschool teachers. They really take the time to listening to what you have to say whether it’s school related or not. I am so glad my children attend or have attended this preschool. Thank You to all the amazing educators at BPCPS!”

“I can not speak highly enough of the beautiful ladies caring, nurturing, teaching, guiding and loving on my daughter for her days at BPCPS. She has transitioned beautifully into preschool and I am confident that the warmth she receives from her teachers is a huge factor in this. I feel confident leaving her at BPCPS, knowing that she will be safe, well looked after and provided so many opportunities for FUN. On top of this, we also feel very welcomed as a family, and look forward to drop offs and pick ups where we can chat and build relationships with the staff. A huge thank you for a fantastic year!”

“You’re fantastic. I appreciate all the updates and the safety aspects that you have in place and the friendly staff and everything you do. My child loves it there, and we couldn’t ask for more.”

“I highly recommend this preschool as the teachers are excellent & work with parents to achieve best results for they’re students/kids.
