Every child that has attended Beachcomber Kindergarten has their experiences, learning and enjoyment recorded in their Growing Book. We’re frequently told that these become prized possessions and one of the very first projects that your child will witness growing and evolving as they do.
After turning five our daughters’ teacher commented on her ‘readiness’ for school. Not only was this in relation to her social and physical skills, but also her academic abilities. We were always pleased we chose Beachcomber as the staff have always been so helpful, supportive, nurturing and understanding. Now we are even happier because they did such a great job with her educational learning as well.

Just thought I would flick you a quick note to say how amazing you and your teachers are. I’m so thankful that you and your team are awesome, kind and caring people. Your kindy is welcoming and all round a special place. You are so accepting and nothing seems to be too hard. The time and effort that you have all invested in both my children means the world to our family. I can’t believe the change in Boston this year has blown us away, he’s excited to come to kindy every day and he is so happy when he is there. As a parent, I couldn’t ask for more. You are all so special to not only Boston but to our whole family.
