If you’re looking for something fun to get the kids involved in and a great local event to attend, this one does both.
Farran Street Quality Childcare Centre is celebrating 30 years in the community, and they’re inviting local families to be part of it! To mark their 30th birthday, Farran Street is running a FREE Colouring Competition and all entries will be displayed at their 30th Birthday Open Day & Community Festival on 23rd May from 10am – 1pm.
Kids will get to see their artwork up on display, go into the draw for prizes and be part of a fun birthday celebration! Perfect if your child loves getting creative or you’re after a fun morning out!
Open Day
Once the kids have entered the colouring competition, the Open Day is the perfect reason to head along and see it all come to life.
There’ll be plenty happening on the day, including:
• Jumping castle
• Face painting
• Children’s games and activities
• Ice cream van
• A gallery showcasing kids’ artwork from the colouring competition
• A chance to explore the centre and meet the educators
It’s designed to feel relaxed, welcoming and genuinely community-focused — with a fun, buzzing atmosphere for families to enjoy.
30 Years of Local Families, Care & Connection
There’s something very special about a centre that’s been part of the community for three decades. Farran Street has built a reputation as more than just childcare — it’s a place where children feel safe, supported, confident and excited to learn. The team is especially proud of how many families return over the years — even across generations.
“Both of my children attended Farran Street, and now my granddaughter does too. It truly feels like family.”
“You can feel the sense of community the moment you walk through the gate.”
It’s the kind of trust that is built over years of genuine care and strong relationships with families.
