Testimonials
Hello Erina kindergarten, I have my son Huxley Atchison in the bush babies room, he has been there for four weeks now. I am writing to commend your staff on their hard work, particularly Maddison Malone & Kiera. Putting Huxley into your school was the most heart-wrenching experience I have even had to go through. Until I got to see and know Miss Maddy and Miss Keira better, that was when I started to feel a lot more confident about my decision to put Huxley in your school. I don’t get to pick Hux up a lot of the time as I work late, but every time one of my family members pick him up they always have something so amazing to say about these two ladies! I can see the true love and care these two ladies have for my boy, and it is with that, that I will stay loyal to Erina kindergarten with future little Huxleys to come. I do hope that the girls are somehow appreciated for this. Thank you so much! Matilda Hughes.

I just wanted to say how happy we were with the Joeys room this year. Our daughter had such a great year with fantastic teachers. I just wanted to give some feedback on the teachers as they really deserve to be recognised for all that they have done. Miss Nichol is such an energetic teacher and is such a good communicator with parents. Every afternoon when I arrive to pick Macey up, she always greets me with enthusiasm and always fills me in on what Macey has done in the day. We have had Miss Nichol for a few years now and truly love having her as a teacher for our children . We have also had Miss Ellie as a teacher for a few years as well. Miss Ellie is such a warm and caring teacher and has a very special rapport with Macey. She is just so friendly and happy and Macey always talks about her and what they did together at school. Miss Ellie also greets me in the afternoon and gives me an update on the day. Macey will miss having her as a teacher next year. Mr Joel has had a huge impact on Macey this year. He just seems to be a real natural with the children and from what I see and hear, they just love him. Macey has taken a very big liking to Mr Joel, especially with his fun magic tricks and fun activities he does with them. He is so calm and patient and most importantly, fun. He has been truly amazing and I would love if all of my children to have a teacher like him every year. He just has that special something that the kids adore. Thank you again Amber

Hi Alycia, I just wanted to say thank you for providing information regarding the room routines at Erina kindergarten. I am a Primary Teacher and I really enjoyed readying how the center balanced play and intentional learning. The programs look great. Our boy, Taj, loves EK and we’ve recommended it to a lot of friends and family. Thank you, Lauren Luchow

Hi, I would just like to acknowledge Miss Jess and the staff in the snugglepots room for the extra care they have been taking of my daughter Emilie over the last couple of months. Em was struggling to settle back into kindy after we came back from a few months away on holidays. After discussing my concerns with a number of the staff, Miss Jess took it upon herself to upload additional photos / stories of Em on storypark each time she attended to help us see what Em was up to. This seemingly small gesture went a long way in stimulating conversation at home and helped us to encourage the aspects of play she enjoys most at school. The staff have also been helping Em in fostering new friendships since her little friend Ella moved up to the Gumnuts room. It is nice to know that our kids have been well looked after through your centre. It is also refreshing to see that parental concerns are taken seriously - no matter how trivial they may appear to be. The extra effort taken with Emilie has made a significant difference to her life and she is much happier in herself. Please feel free to pass my compliments on to the directors, snugglepots staff and the owners. Kellie Langford

Nichol and the other the teachers at Erina Kindergarten have an amazing influence on Evie during her journey at Erina Kindergarten and our discovery. Nicol has had such a profound influence on Evie’s future. Evie would be a different child now and not excelling in so many areas at school without Nichol and the other caring staffs at Erina Kindergarten.

In April of this year, I was searching for a school for my son. I was so happy when I found your school, the size alone amazed me as well as your equipment and colour everywhere. Then I had the pleasure of meeting your lovely staff. Miss Ash with that beautiful bubbly personality greeted me and gave me a tour and made me feel at ease. You have provided parents with such a great school with size, educational programs (exceeding national standards), great equipment and sitting areas. The thing that means most to me is that my child was in a loving and nurturing environment and you had provided that. I would love to give a massive thank you to Miss Ash, Miss Julie, Miss Tiarn, Miss Hannah, Miss Vanessa and the lovely women in the office. These teachers have been so supportive and comforting. It’s teachers like them that make a school as wonderful as yours. Thank you for the wonderful experience, I would highly recommend your school to anyone.

Our son Keaton adores the Bush Babies team, and we will be excited to return with both of our children when spots come up later.
May I please also commend the room leader, Miss Kelly. Incredibly compassionate, warm, easy to talk to, provides amazing advice, and really feel like she's been on our "wavelength". She is an amazing team member, Keaton clearly loves her.
