Testimonials

My family have had a wonderful experience at Inner North Playschool. It was particularly helpful for our three year old son who hadn’t been to childcare at all. He started the year feeling very timid and nervous, but with amazing support from Margie and Sharon, he settled in and absolutely loved going to playschool. It made a huge difference to his confidence, his ability to socialise with other children and to follow instructions in a group setting.

We believe it has supported our son in preparing for the transition to preschool now that he is 4. We are so grateful to Margie and Sharon for nurturing our son and helping him to blossom! We can’t wait for Leah to turn 3 so she can go to playschool too!

Our son Tom attended INPS in 2017. We had just moved to Canberra from the UK and my husband and I placed high importance on getting Tom into a happy environment where he could meet other kids and that would support his development. INPS was a great find. Margie is wonderful. She’s a very happy and caring person; great with the kids and creates a fun but organised environment. They do so much! We loved pinning up all of Tom’s playschool creations on our walls. Tom still speaks highly of Margie and that is high praise from a tough little customer!

Three of my children have attended INP and my fourth child is enrolled for next year, so it goes without saying that we are very happy with the Playschool and are really looking forward being involved again for another year. INP prepares the children so beautifully for preschool – they are used to following a routine, managing their own lunchboxes and getting used to waiting their turn to share ideas.

My children still talk about their time at INP and have such fond memories. Margie is such an enthusiastic, nurturing and fun teacher that the children are gagging to get back to Playschool each week. I’m confident that you would be hard pressed to find anything better for a 3-4 year old. We are very thankful we found INP and it has been such a great start to a school environment for our children.

We are so grateful for the opportunities that INPS has offered our child. INPS has offered her the environment to flourish and excel, both intellectually and socially! Attending INPS has set her up for the school experience and we will forever be grateful for Margie’s leadership and guidance to the
children!

Hello class!

Harry, Kath, Ella and Saba

We couldn’t have been luckier to find Inner North Playschool for our daughter Ella’s first experience at school in 2013.  Her sister Saba joined in the fun in 2017 and had an amazing year as well.  There wasn’t a day that either of our daughters didn’t want to go to playschool and they both have wonderful memories.

Margie has created the most fun and nurturing environment, where crafty little kids proudly bring something home every school day and have a new song to sing or story to tell.

Special days like Easter, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and Christmas were made even more exciting for the little ones as they ever so proudly showered us with their creations.

We highly recommend Inner North Playschool to any family wanting a fantastic introduction to school for their children.

My daughter absolutely loved her time at Inner North Playschool. Margie is a fantastic educator who makes sure the kids are having a blast (she does too!) and learn some valuable skill sets through play. Eve got to know her school friends well and many of the parents/grandparents got to know each other well too which made for a fantastic community. Eve still has fond memories of her year at INPS and so do I. Rest assured your kids are in good hands at INPS, they’ll be kept busy and excited all year round.

My two children have attended INPS. I have been so happy to have them attend Playschool. It’s a real community with families linking up even after the children finish. INPS prepares the children so beautifully with lovely life skills like being kind, outdoor nature play, excursions & eventually
preschool.

The small class size with both a lead teacher Margie & assistant Sharon offer an environment that helps children thrive. Children learn to follow a routine, managing their own lunchboxes and get used to waiting their turn to share ideas.
My children often talk about their time at INP, have such rich memories and treasures (artwork, tea towels, beautiful photo book etc).

The educators are balanced, kind and add so much to the children’s lives in a critical time for three-four year old’s. I am so very thankful we found INP and it has been such a great opportunity for my children.

Lou

Thank you for such a wonderful year for our boys! They had such a lovely experience attending Inner North Playschool and I highly recommend it! It was so nice to watch them grow throughout the year, learning such a wide variety of topics and making so many lovely friends. I loved how every day they would come home with something special that they had made and be so proud of their work.

We were so grateful of Margie and Sharon, such special educators who get to know all of their students and go to great efforts to ensure all children are included and loved. With the fantastic structure of Playschool our boys settled into Preschool so well after learning the basics from Margie and Sharon. We were so lucky to be a part of the 2023 Playschool class, thank you!

Inner North Playschool was a highlight in both my and my son’s week. Margie and Sharon are the perfect complementary teaching duo. I’ve not found anywhere else with such a community of families so like-minded in their investment in their kids’ wellbeing and development.

It was a pleasure to be a part of this great community and I will definitely be enrolling our second child when the time comes. My son had fun, learnt new skills, made great friends and has fond memories of his time at Playschool.

Our son had never been to day care, so we were looking for something that would help prepare him for preschool. We were so glad when we found INPS – and it couldn’t have been more perfect. 

Margie and Sharon are amazing, engaging educators, who can hold a room full of three and four-year old’s in thrall – which is no small accomplishment! Our son still talks about them and his play school experience all the time. It is such a warm, caring, enriching environment, and one that we feel privileged to have been part of. I can’t recommend INPS highly enough.
