H.I.P.P.Y Maryborough
We are proud to be partnered with HIPPY (Home Interactive Program for Parents & Youngsters) to provide skills, resources and fun to help support young families in our mob with pre school education.
Children’s earliest and most powerful love of learning comes from their family, and we are here to help empower you.
You are your child’s first and most important teacher. HIPPY gives you access to fun, free tools and activities for you and your child - you'll gain new skills and confidence and connect with other parents.
