Acknowledgment

Balcombe Preschool acknowledges that the children and families of our service learn and play on Bunurong Country. We pay respect to their elders: past and present.

Lenny

We are so lucky to have Lenny join us at preschool, attending every day with our 4 year olds. Observing, interacting with and learning to care for an animal can be a valuable part of a child’s educational experience by enriching their learning. Encouraging direct contact and developing bonds with animals, can also help children build empathy 😊
