13.01.2022 Good Afternoon Everyone, This is an update on Bambi's Mobile Preschool Service Approval Applications. A phone call was received from the Department of Education last week, they have informed us they will now be proceeding with a site visit to our venues. ... This process can take up to 6 weeks, we are sorry for the delay however, this is completely out of our control. We appreciate your patience and loyalty to Bambi. If you are interested in a position at our Mobile Preschool please complete a Expression of Interest form this can be found in the 'menu' section of our page. Thankyou

11.01.2022 Good Evening Bambi Community, This is an update on the Bambi Kindergarten Mobile Preschool Service Approval. The Department of Education are conducting sites visits this Friday. We anticipate we should have a outcome in the near future following this visit. ... We will keep you posted with the progress. Thank you for your patience in this regard. Management and Staff.

11.01.2022 A few reminders for returning and new families. Monday 29th January is a Pupil Free Day (fees are not payable on this day). Preschool will resume on Tuesday 30th January. Each child has been given a stager starting time, please remember to come at this time to ensure your child has an opportunity to settle into their room with their teachers.... From 2018, Bambi has introduced 'Story Park' this is an online networking tool to enable the preschool to share your child's portfolio with you, share a day book each week and share other important announcements. It is important if you have not already accepted the story park invitation and consent form (available within your email, please check you JUNK folders). that you do to ensure you don't miss out on any important announcements or information regarding your child's development at preschool. For new families whose child has received a vaccination over the holiday break, please remember to send a copy of there updated immunisation history statement to [email protected] if we have not received your child's up-to-date immunisation statement they will be ineligible to commence.

10.01.2022 Good Morning Bambi Community, It is with great pleasure I am happy to announce Bambi has received documentation from the Salvation Army at Macquarie Fields approving a 10 year lease. In addition we have also been given the opportunity to extend this 10 year lease by a further 5 years (totalling 15 years) if we wish. ... Bambi's biggest hurdle now will be raising the funds to build a 2 unit classroom and make renovations to an existing part of the building (if you know of any bathroom companies, painters, carpenters etc we would love to hear from them for the internal works to the existing building). Whilst Bambi has fundraised for over 25 years to save funds just for this reason, we only have approx. a quarter of the building and renovation costs required to complete this mammoth project. Every dollar matters! We are asking for monetary donations and are in the process of approaching large businesses for help and applying for funding grants. If you or anyone you know, may wish to make a donation (large or small), please note our "Building Fund" account is: Name: Bambi Kindergarten Building Fund BSB: 062-185 Account No: 10664167 Reference: (add your name or business here so we can forward a "Tax Deductible Receipt" to claim on your next Income Tax Return). I want to thank all our families, committee members, staff and external support to the preschool for this combined effort in securing our future. Bambi's current lease will expire at the conclusion of April, 2019. Bambi will then onwards be located at the new premises.

10.01.2022 Good Afternoon Everyone, Just an update: - Bambi has lodged 3 service approvals as a mobile preschool (1 at Leppington, 1 at Campbelltown and 1 at Varroville).

Please see below a FOR SALE LISTING. If you are interested in purchasing anything off the list please contact us on Facebook or at [email protected] Thank you

06.01.2022 Dear Bambi Supporters It is with a heavy heart that we inform you that Bambi’s lease at 1 Arthur Allen Drive, Bardia will come to an end on 29th April 2019. Bambi will be closing its doors to the community as we have yet to secure a temporary facility or build a new preschool at this point in time. ... Bambi will continue to endeavour to reopen again and is currently working with the Salvation Army in Macquarie Fields to make this happen. In Feb 2019, Bambi were notified of a successful grant application with the Department of Education. This grant provides Bambi with the funds to build purpose built classrooms at the Macquarie Fields site. Bambi is currently working to lodge a DA with council for the Macquarie Fields site. Bambi’s Annual General Meeting will be held next Tuesday 26th February at 6pm. Community members are encouraged to attend and obtain an update on Bambi’s future. Thank you to everyone for your ongoing care and support for our preschool. Regards Management and Staff
