FROM OUR FAMILIES

"Our kids have really flourished at Gum Nut Gully and it will always hold a special place in our hearts. The kids have formed beautiful friendships and we’ve made really great friends through it as well.

The care, passion and experience really shines through in all the educators who develop such a strong bond with all the kids. They are patient, understanding and just wonderful to work with.

The Bush Kinder program at Gum Nut is also very unique and it allowed our boys to learn through play in a natural setting.

Both our boys went through 2 years of kinder here and our niece too. We definitely recommend Gum Nut Gully for parents who want an exceptional kinder experience!"

My daughter started 3 year old kinder at Gum Nut Gully this year and I have seen her confidence grow ever since. 

The teachers are so caring and I love that there is structured learning and routines to help my daughter adjust. 

Since starting at Gum Nut, my son has never been happier.

He looks forward to going each day and has formed very close friendships.

The educators are always sending photos and tailored updates throughout the week which is so comforting to see that my son is happily engaged.

Well done to all the staff for running such a fantastic bush kinder.

"I highly recommend Gumnut Gully Preschool to any parents looking to put their child into 3 or 4 year old Kinder. My daughter completed 3 year old Kindy last year and has stayed on to do 4 year old Kindy this year and she absolutely loves it.

The teachers have all been exceptional, taking time to make connections with each student so they feel comfortable and secure going to Kindy.

Last year the Australian Children's Education & Care Quality Authority rated them Exceeding in all 7 areas which is the highest rating possible and so well deserved. We have loved being apart of Gumnut Gully Preschool and it's wonderful community."

We have loved Gum Nut Gully for our two kids.

It’s a wonderful community to be a part of in a gorgeous and natural setting and the education and care our children have received has been beyond our expectations.

The best thing about this kinder is my son loved it and look forward to each and every kinder day!

Why he loved it so much? The teachers are there with heart, they care and learn about each individual kid, passionate about bring learning through play.

They also offer the best bush kinder program in the Mullum Mullum trail at the back of the kinder.

I would absolutely recommend this kinder to everyone!

"My son has steadily blossomed at Gum Nut Gully kinder.

Right from the beginning, the teachers have all been warm, patient and positive in their approach. He has thrived in an environment where he has had the time, space and opportunity to develop. The teachers are highly tuned to the needs and interests of each child and include these in the program. I have been so impressed by the teachers’ understanding that each child is on their own growth journey.

The bush kinder program has been a wonderful initiative that has provided the children with an abundance of unique and fun learning opportunities. They are able to explore, use their imagination and problem solve together - the power of play at its best! Bush kinder is a huge undertaking by the teachers but it’s approached with such enthusiasm and passion each week. The teachers’ commitment to providing the children with the very best learning environment is undeniable.

I have no doubt that the amazing staff and program at Gum Nut Gully have been vital in my son’s growth and development. I highly recommend Gum Nut Gully, it is an excellent kinder!"

As we've moved a few times, each of our kids have gone through different kindergartens, and Gum Nut Gully is second to none.

It provides a caring nurturing environment while allowing ample opportunity for our son, who currently attends, to push his boundaries.

The play based learning is excellent, with enough structure to give the kids opportunities to try new things without being too rigid.

We are looking forward to bush kinder in terms 2 and 3, something we always wanted for our older children but never had the opportunity at their respective previous kindergartens.

The staff and parents are lovely and supportive, giving great feedback and obviously care about the kids the and the kinder community.

We have another younger child who will definitely be attending Gum Nut Gully in the future.
