About us

A Small Centre With a Big Heart

My First School is proudly family‑owned and deeply connected to the St Marys community.  

Our small size allows us to build strong, trusting relationships with children and families — the kind that make drop‑offs easier, learning richer, and childhood happier.

We believe in:
– Warm, nurturing care  
– Respect for every culture and family background  
– Play‑based learning that builds confidence  
– Open, honest communication with families  
– A calm, home‑like environment where children feel secure  

Our educators are experienced, caring and passionate about early childhood development. Many have been with us for years, giving children the consistency they need to feel safe and supported.

Our Learning Program

Strong School Readiness, Delivered With Warmth

We prepare children for school — not through pressure, but through confidence, curiosity, and joyful learning.

Our program focuses on:

– Early literacy and numeracy  
– Social and emotional development  
– Communication and problem‑solving  
– Independence and self‑help skills  
– Creativity, imagination, and play  

Every child learns differently, so we tailor experiences to their interests and developmental stage.  

We want children to leave us feeling capable, confident, and excited for the next chapter.
