Amanda Bronish - 6 months ago
We have three children at the Waratah 2 Centre and LOVE it! The staff are amazing and go above and beyond what is expected. It's such a welcoming, homely environment with rich learning experiences, our children have gained so much, particularly in their social development. They have been exceptional this year, during the Covid pandemic, going above and beyond again and we are so thankful to have our children there.
