Testimonials.

“My daughter had the best time on her first day at Flying Fox, so much so that she made me drive past the venue the next day to prove it wasn’t open that day”

“Flying Fox have been amazing with 3 of my children. I love that they spend their day in community based care with educators that my children adore! Being within the local school has also made the transition to primary a much easier process”

When I moved up here in 2012 I was told about Flying Fox Mobile Preschool and thought I would give it a try for my 2nd son, he absolutely loved it. I have since has 2 other children go to Flying Fox and loved it as well. Since my last child has been there they have moved to the local school which my daughter really loves because she can meet the “big school” kids. I wouldn’t pick any other preschool. I will be very sad when she finishes at the end of the year”

Thankyou once again to all the ladies at Flying Fox Mobile Preschool. Today my son brought home his portfolio and his performance video, it is truly a wonderful preschool and we will miss coming on Monday and Friday next year when he heads off to big school. We thank you for all the wonderful memories you have created for him, he has learnt so much whilst being able to do all the activities he loves (getting outdoors) and we wish you all the best over the coming years. See you in a couple of years when our youngest is ready to come join the fun
