My family and I moved to Emerald from Brisbane for work, and my daughter, who is now in prep at St Brigid's, was in the kindergarten room for a few months before starting school. My 2.5-year-old is still at F5Y in the senior toddler room, and he loves it. The food is healthy and ample, and the teachers are lovely. They ensure we are constantly updated on what is happening with Will, which is essential to us as two full-time working parents. F5Y is well a well-run early education and childcare facility.
