Committee of Management

Help Shape Bimbadeen's Future

The Committee of Management plays a vital role in keeping our pre-school running smoothly. As a parent-run, non-profit organisation, the committee oversees governance, finances, and daily operations to ensure everything stays on track. Without the committee, our pre-school simply couldn’t operate.

Member Experiences

  • The President's role is a busy one, supporting the Committee and staff to keep the Kinder on track. From payment approvals to the playground, it is a job with many variables. The most rewarding part is seeing the kids grow and thrive from both the big and small things the team puts into place and knowing the outcomes we achieve are helping not just your child, but a whole community.
