When you are looking for a Maroubra primary school in New South Wales for your child, we suggest that you, as a parent, get involved from the start. Your child is going to be at school for a long time. You want the best for your child, and that includes a loving, nurturing, safe, creative and inspiring space. And while your child is probably so ready for this new step and new stage in their life, your involvement does not stop once they walk through the door.

Know the staff, know the other parents

Once you have chosen the right child care centre in New South Wales, keep up a relationship with the head teacher and your child’s teachers. They definitely know their job, and they are good at what they do, but any school enjoys having input from a parent. If you think they are doing a great job, tell them! Everyone likes affirmation. If you have worries, voice them quickly. A well run child care centre values the input, they need to know the good with the bad. And while hopefully there is no bad, if there is an area that you feel could be improved, communicate it.

Children also love to see their parents being involved. If there is a fair, a charity day, a birthday or any special event, take part. If the school is asking parents to bake a cake, hand out tickets, organise a raffle, or whatever it is, we encourage you to take part, if you can. While plenty of parents work a full day and cannot participate, there are different ways of participating and getting involved. Do it, your child will welcome it and so will you, when you see your child grow and blossom!

Take your time in finding the right Maroubra primary school in New South Wales ensuring that both you and your child are happy and stimulated.
