The dedicated team of long-term educators at Toowoomba Central is passionate about providing high-quality care in a nurturing and safe environment, fostering strong and caring relationships with each child to ensure they feel happy and secure.
As a not-for-profit, community-based organization established in 1975, Kath Dickson Family Centre has been a cornerstone in providing quality child care options for families with children aged 0-5 years. The organization was founded by Miss Kathleen Dickson, a respected educator who recognized the need for safe and engaging care for children in the Toowoomba community. Over the past 45 years, Kath Dickson Family Centre has remained true to its founder’s vision and values, supporting families and children in their crucial early years of childhood.
Miss Kathleen Dickson’s dedication to the education and well-being of children in Toowoomba led to the establishment of family day care services in the region, laying the foundation for the organization’s growth and diversification. The center’s commitment to creating a ‘home away from home’ for children and families is evident in the strong sense of community and support provided to all who are part of the Kath Dickson Education and Care Centre – Toowoomba Central. Through a play-based approach and a focus on building relationships, the center continues to uphold its legacy of quality care and early childhood education.
