Fundraising & Working Bee
Why We Fundraise
As a not-for-profit, parent volunteer committee-run kindergarten, fundraising is essential to maintaining and improving our facilities, play spaces, and educational resources. While we receive some government funding, it doesn’t cover all costs—especially for new play equipment, educational toys, and essential upgrades.
Our committee of management ensures that every dollar raised directly benefits our kindergarten.
Fundraising events like the Welcome BBQ, Movie Night, and Kidathlon not only raise funds but also strengthen our community by bringing families together.
This Year’s Fundraising Goals:
✔ Outdoor renovations
✔ New tables & chairs for the children
✔ Soundproofing the Jacaranda Room
Thank you for your continued support—together, we’re making a real difference for our kinder and our kids!

Working Bee's
As you can see our external play space at the kindergarten looks spectacular. This is due to the work that parents, children, teachers and the City of Kingston put into our outside area to keep it looking good all year round. We hold the workings bee’s on Sunday’s the first week back of each term. We hold 5 working bees throughout the year. Our first working bee for the year we invite ALL families. This is a fantastic opportunity to meet other families, see your teachers again, and it helps your children get excited with starting that week. The following 4 working bees will be divided into 1 kinder group per term. This allows for a more intimate working bee, and gives you that chance to just work with the other
children and families in your child’s kinder group. The children absolutely love helping at working bees, and or just playing with their friends. These working bee’s are organised by the Maintenance Officer (parent Committee of Management) and will be communicated via class dojo and your private groups Facebook page. We also have a working bee sign up sheet which we put out couple weeks before a working bee. We ask that you please write your name down so we can ensure we have enough helpers. Typical duties involve re-mulching, weeding and basic maintenance of playground equipment. The more volunteers the quicker the working bees get done.
