Long jetty Preschool (02) 4333 7776

We are a Community Based Pre-School, which was established in April 1987. For many years we operated from the First Tuggerah Lakes Scout Hall.

In 1997, after a long campaign, we secured State Government Capital Funding enabling us to build our wonderful current purpose built Pre-School. This was a huge achievement for all those involved. One the community can be proud of. 1998 was spent planning and building the new building, whilst also continuing to operate out of the hall. On 22nd February 1999 we opened for operation in our lovely new building.  With our new premises we were able to expand to a two unit service.
 

We are a non-profit organisation.
We lease the land the Pre-School is built on from Wyong Shire Council.

Local Clubs Diggers @ the Entrance and Mingara Recreation Club have supported our service annual through the Community Development support Expenditure (CDSE) enabling our service to achieve additional projects and goals.
