We achieve this with various session times to suit all parents' requirements.

We provide a home-like environment catering to your needs and in particular to the needs of your child.

At our centre we focus on ensuring that parents, families and community members feel welcome to actively participate, contribute ideas, skills and knowledge and provide us with valuable feedback to enrich our high quality programs. As SOCCS is a parent managed organisation, a Parent Committee is elected annually. Being part of this committee enables you to become familiar with the running of the Centre and to meet other parents. All parents, regardless of whether they are committee members or not, are extremely welcome to attend the Monthly Committee Meetings. An agenda with notice of dates and times will be advertised prior to each meeting.
