Voluntary Contributions

Preschools in the ACT are provided by the ACT Government.  As of 2008 Florey Preschool is administratively linked to Florey School. The Preschool is financially managed by the Preschool Parent Association (PPA) under the guidance of the Teacher in Charge. Parents with enrolled children automatically become members of the PPA. The PPA sets the voluntary contributions at the first PPA general meeting. 

We greatly value your involvement. There are many ways that you can support your child’s Preschool education.

Offering to help in the class on a roster basis with small group activities, craft, reading to the children, cooking.

Excursions – for all excursions we are required to have 1 adult per 4 children. This means for each excursion we need at least 5 parents to accompany us.
