Our Community

Parents and our Volunteer Board of Management

Pymble Turramurra Preschool is incorporated under the Associations Incorporation Act 1984.  We are a non-profit organisation run by a volunteer Board of Management (BOM), drawn from the Members.  The BOM is licensed to operate under Clause 32(1) of the Children (Care & Protection) Act 1987 and is responsible for all aspects of the control and management of the preschool.

Membership of the preschool ($3.00) for a parent is compulsory while their child is attending Pymble Turramurra preschool and our Members (parents) elect the new BOM at the Annual General Meeting held in February/March each year. 

As a community preschool, parents are strongly encouraged to be actively involved in the leadership and workings of Pymble Turramurra Preschool.  This ensures the continued existence, overall progression and maintenance of the preschool itself.

Funding

As a community preschool, Pymble Turramurra Preschool fees are set annually by our volunteer Board of Management. This covers the majority of our operating costs. We also receive some funding from the NSW Department of Education.

Fundraising is an important part of the long term plan for Pymble Turramurra Preschool, it provides about half of the money for capital improvements to the preschool, additional materials for the children to use and extra activities for the children to experience.

While all participation in fundraising activities is voluntary, as a community preschool it is strongly encouraged that each family become involved in and contribute to these fundraising efforts.

In addition, the Board of Management seeks government and corporate grants to help Pymble Turramurra Preschool launch and complete specialist projects. These grants vary greatly in source and value however each and every grant received is used within the specifications of that grant.

Gifts

Pymble Turramurra Preschool is able to accept tax deductible gifts for our Building Fund. Where a donation over $2.00 is made a receipt will be issued. These gifts will be used to improve the facilities at the preschool.
