“I could not speak more highly of the service St Mary’s has provided during my association with the Centre. The facilities are excellent, but it is the staff who make this an outstanding facility. They are all creative, intelligent, effective, and hugely empathetic.

There is a real sense of community engagement: the staff seem to have a genuine interest in the lives of the families with which they are involved, which means family and teachers can work together in the child’s best interests.”

“St Mary’s has been such a great centre for our two kids, they have been really happy there. Having all ages together means siblings are able to stay together, but also builds up other relationships across ages where they can look up to or look after older or younger peers.

The Kaiako are all very supportive and caring. The physical environment of the centre works really well with a lovely outdoor play area and also a covered patio area for wet days.”
