Bimbi preschool
The Bimbi difference
Families choose Bimbi Preschool because children are deeply known, joyfully engaged and thoughtfully supported to grow in confidence, curiosity and capability.
Bimbi is an integral part of Red Hill Public School and Wagga Wagga’s only Department of Education preschool. As one connected Preschool to Year 6 learning community, we offer children a distinctive early learning experience, a strong sense of belonging and a familiar, supported transition towards primary school.
Bimbi Preschool is proud to be rated as Exceeding the National Quality Standard, recognising the thoughtful teaching, strong relationships and high-quality learning experiences that shape our program. Our experienced and qualified early childhood educators provide purposeful, play-based learning that builds on each child’s interests, strengths, ideas and emerging skills, extending their learning through exploration, conversation, creativity and discovery.
Our program is guided by the Early Years Learning Framework and the National Quality Framework
Bimbi welcomes children who turn four on or before 31 July in the year before they begin primary school. Children attend five days each fortnight in one of two groups:
Group 1: Monday and Tuesday, plus alternate Wednesdays
