Parent Information Centre
Medowie Gumnut Preschool has a Parent Information Centre located near the entry. The centre holds information books, relevant to childcare regulations, policies, philosophies and goals, as well as our program. These are available for perusal to all our families. Please read the program and advise staff if you have any comments or contributions. These items are also located on our preschool App KinderM8
You will “Sign In/Sign Out” your child at preschool via the QR code located in various areas around our preschool. This QR code will take you to the KinderM8 attendance portal. Each child has their own individual note pocket, a Lost Property Box, Suggestion Box, our written program, and the children’s individual Learning Portfolios that you can access at any time that suits you.
A noticeboard on which preschool notices are displayed is situated on the wall, beside the front door. It is important that families check regularly for the latest information. The board may also be used by parents or be used for community notices, advertising, etc.
