At Kelso West we believe that early childhood is an important time in a person's life. We believe that by providing individually programmed experiences in a warm and secure environment, we provide the stimulation, education, enrichment and most importantly fun that are the basis of a wonderful early learning environment.
Our parent committee and community involvement has developed over the last three years and we have had the opportunity to provide the children in our care with wonderful experiences as a result.
We are currently building an organic vegetable and sensory garden in our "back block". With the dedication of staff and parents we have already completed a chicken coop, worm farm and "spring lamb project". Nature is a wonderful tool to spark wonder and imagination in children and as such, each room has their own pet, including yabbies, turtles, fish birds and axolotls.
Our core staff is a vibrant mix of newly graduated and more experienced staff, which is complimented with a reliable relief pool. This blend enables us to provide the children in our care with a consistent, secure environment. We have developed strong ties with our local support agencies including Bathurst Early Intervention Services, The Benevolent Society, Bi-Cultural Support Pool and CWIS in an endeavour to enrich every child entrusted in our care.
