Parent Testimonials

“Hi Della,

Hope this finds you well. Further to our conversation in the last fortnight, I wanted to express formally, our sentiments regarding Madeleine’s ELC Kindergarten Teacher, Gemma Sartori.

Madeleine (and Michael and I) enjoyed a wonderful year in Older Pre-Kinder in 2009, much due to the care and quality of educational tuition she received from Gemma. So, as you can appreciate, we were absolutely wrapped when we were advised that Gemma had secured the role of permanent Kindergarten Teacher in the ELC.

Madeleine has always been a child who thrives on learning and has a thirst for acquiring new knowledge and experience. Her year thus far in the ELC has continued to nurture this desire in her. This we can attribute a great deal to Gemma with the support of her assistants Intan and Maggie (both girls we have found to be brilliant as well). Gemma leads her team to:

Show demonstrable and genuine care for our children, providing for an environment where the children feel safe and secure;
Promote a culture of positive learning, through academic and social experiences/teachings;
Foster a respectful and collaborative approach to learning and engaging with each other;
Engage with both children and their families alike – this is absolutely fantastic and gives parents such a sense of confidence in the quality of care their children receive.

Gemma’s role I would imagine is a rewarding, however challenging one, having to manage the days of 20+ active 4-5 year olds. Yet, she is always positive, amiable and genuinely interested and engaging. She is clearly an asset to Tigger’s and I can say confidently, has enabled our daughter to have what I consider to be, a wonderful pre-cursor into formal education when she reaches primary school next year. The only thing we would really like to see is a further focus in the children’s education on the alphabet, words and reading – Madeleine is just itching to read independently! We can only hope that our daughter Lucinda is fortunate enough to have Gemma, or at the very least, someone of her calibre when she reaches the ELC.”
