    Where do I even begin with this school. 2 years ago my son started attending story house and from day dot, it was inviting and welcoming for not only myself but for my son as well. After previously having poor experiences with childcare centre interstate, I was hesitant about enrolling him into another school. All of the staff understood that and supported me through it all. Every time I see the director (Pam) she not only knows all the children, but she is aware of parents names, grandparents name, siblings names everyone’s. She cares and she shows it. The educators are passionate about what they do, and work hard to support all of the children to help grow their minds. When feedback is provided it is taken on board, the communication between educators and families is always amazing and you never miss anything when it comes to the children’s developments. My family and I regularly joke about the fact that my son has a 5 course meal at school every day and he is getting more nutrition than us. The school prioritises the children in all circumstances. My son has been supported in his friendships, his growth and support. This centre genuinely goes the extra mile and treats you like an individual. At this centre my child is not just a number or another box ticked and neither am I. I have cried in the hallway when I thought my son might need to change schools, if that doesn’t say how supportive this school is then I don’t know what does. All of these educators are so valued at this school, and I for one am beyond thankful for all they do, for my sons little brain.

    We are so delighted with the care provided to our kids at Story House Forest Hill. The educators are warm, nurturing and caring. Management communicate openly and are approachable and responsive. Our kids are offered such amazing educational experiences, both in centre and via excursions and incursions. My son loves his weekly bush kinder and Spanish lessons. They skip in happily each morning which really says it all!
