Get Involved: Join Our Management Committee
We encourage your active participation in our kindergarten community. One way to do this is by joining our Management Committee.
Bribie Island Community Kindergarten is a community-owned center operated by a Parent Committee. Any profits generated are reinvested directly into the center.
What is the Management Committee?
The Management Committee is a group of parents of current students and interested community members who work together to oversee the operations of the kindergarten. This dedicated team meets monthly to make important decisions and ensure the smooth running of the center.
