What Our Families Say
Don't just take our word for it - hear from the families who are part of our wonderful kindergarten community.
“As a community kindergarten, Brookville is managed by parents - that means that you have an opportunity to be part of the Committee of Management and have a positive impact on the outcomes of your child's education... And of course another benefit is the friendships you make along the way. My children aren't the only ones who have made long-life friendships!”
Amanda, mother of 2 and member of Committee of Management 2017
“My son loves going to Brookville Kindergarten. When I observe him there, his eyes light up with curiosity and wonder. He comes home and tells me about all the bones in my body, how enormous the sun is and how to make words rhyme. Brookville Kindergarten has nurtured his spirit... His mind becomes alive.”
Kate, mother of 3 boys
“My son constantly surprises me with the interesting and thought-provoking experiences he has at kinder. He has also really flourished socially and I love watching his confidence grow every day.”
Jade, mother
“You learn how to respect the toys and the furniture.”
What to expect at kindergarten, Milla, 3 years old
“Both my girls have been through Brookville and loved it. It has been an ideal preparation for school, getting children into the same structure and hours and learning to be responsible for hats, jackets and other personal items. The transition for the eldest one to primary school was seamless... The teachers and management are professional with high-level and regular communication so that you know exactly what your children are learning.”
Dee, mother of two
