Nestled in the heart of Hurstbridge, Ferguson Park is a warm and inviting preschool with a strong sense of community. Ferguson Park Pre-School features:
· Qualified, experienced and friendly staff
· Respect for the individual needs and ideas of each child
· Fantastic outdoor play area in a semi-rural environment
· Parent managed and ongoing opportunities for involvement
· Programs that respect and further develop the interests and ideas of every child
· Carefully planned excursions and visiting incursions
· Social events for parents and the whole family.
In 2023, our 3-year-old program expanded into the former Hurstbridge Pre-school site which has now become our ‘Banksia Building’. This expansion has allowed for an increase in the number of places and hours we can offer in our three-year old program. Our four-year-old program continues to operate out of our original ‘Wattle Building’.
