Exciting News - Stage 1 of our $180,000 external renovation is now open!!

The renovations have been going for a few weeks now and the weather hasn't exactly been kindy to us! Listonia Landscaping & MG Larder Builders & Landscapers are doing a wonderful job. I think everyone agrees what has been done so far is pretty impressive! This week we hope to see the roof structure completed, the sandpit filled with sand and the extended outside area tiled. In the next week or so they will then move on to construction zone 2 (extends from the outside toilets to the bottom shed). They are working hard to make up time lost due to bad weather and we are still hopeful of completion by the beginning of term 2.

UPDATE 17 March: This coming week Zone 1 will be completed and handed over - This is the main part of our external renovations and WOW does it look impressive, take a look at the photos below.

UPDATE: 19 March - This morning our blue group children arrived to be wowed by our beautiful new sandpit, extended & covered outside area. We are all amazed at what our fantastic Landscapers have achieved for us, check out the photos below.

Exciting happenings at the kindy over Christmas

Over the Christmas holidays the teachers and committee have still been working hard clearing out the kindy so we can start our internal renovations. A big thank you to Tim Alexander Carpentry and his team who have pulled out all the stops to get it finished on time for the start of term 1 2013.

This has been proudly funded and supported by the Queensland and Commonwealth Governments. The work includes reconfiguring the staff toilet to make a bigger storage area. Installing new lockers and storage above, installing custom built storage in home corner and a custom built music cupboard. Tim will also be removing the old shed from under the kindy, putting in a concrete slab and a built in storage area later in the year.

Our playground redevelopment is coming along, we are waiting for Brisbane City Council to give us the go ahead to remove a tree and for building approval for the deck extension and shade structures.

We will keep you updated …..
