Toormina Community Preschool is a child safe environment
Welcome to
Toormina Community Preschool
Toormina Community Preschool is “not for profit” and has been proudly operating since 1976.
We provide education and care for 3 – 5 year olds during school terms from 8am – 3.30 or 4pm. The preschool is situated next to ALDI in Toormina just on the outskirts of Sawtell.
​
Our service philosophy focuses on building respectful relationships and providing quality education in collaboration with families. We believe children learn best through play.
​
We acknowledge and show respect to the traditional custodians of the land, the Gumbaynggirr people, on which we live, learn and play. We pay our respects to the elders of the past, present and emerging.

Toormina Community Preschool takes enrolments at anytime throughout the year if vacancies exist. We encourage families to visit the preschool and observe the program, meet the educators and decide if this is the environment that best meets yours and your child's needs.

Philosophy
At Toormina Community Preschool educators are passionate about building and nurturing strong and respectful relationships with children, families, colleagues, committee members and the broader community.
Educators work in collaborative partnerships with families and view them as a child’s first and most influential teacher in life. We believe these partnerships provide the best support for children as they make progress in the learning outcomes set out in the Early Years Learning Framework.
We aspire for all children, staff and families to gain a sense of belonging to our Preschool and wider community.
