About Us

Tick Tock Educare & Pre-Primary was established for working Moms and Dads who want a safe, educational and loving environment for their children. In partnership with parents, our school is dedicated to developing each child’s full potential by providing outstanding early childhood care and education.  

The children at Tick Tock are receiving the best pre-primary education, delivered by teachers who are happy to be a part of your child’s foundation years and who approach each child holistically.

Tick Tock Educare & Pre-Primary was established in 1998 by Alf and Cheryl Ferreira together with their daughter Colleen, who remains involved. Daughter, Belinda, joined and eventually took over the reins as Principal in 2013.  Under Belinda, the school continues to grow in quality and numbers, and they can proudly boast more than 200 little students.

Teachers Pledge

Teachers are carefully chosen to ensure we have the best of the best. Each of our teachers gladly committed to our Teachers Pledge:

  1. I pledge to create a safe and welcoming environment where every child feels valued, loved, and respected. I will nurture their emotional, physical, and intellectual well-being with compassion and care.
  2. I pledge to inspire curiosity in every child, encouraging them to explore, question, and create. I will provide opportunities for hands-on learning, helping them to develop their imagination and problem-solving skills.
  3. I pledge to treat each child with fairness and respect, embracing their individual differences and nurturing a diverse classroom environment. I will celebrate diversity and teach children to appreciate and respect others.
  4. I pledge to support the development of social skills and emotional intelligence by guiding children in building positive relationships, resolving conflicts, and expressing themselves in healthy ways.
  5. I pledge to ensure that all activities, interactions, and materials are safe for the children in my care. I will remain vigilant about their health and safety, promoting habits that encourage a lifetime of well-being.
  6. I pledge to instil a love of learning in every child by promoting a growth mindset. I will encourage persistence, resilience, and self-confidence, helping children understand that mistakes are part of the learning process.
  7. I pledge to build open and transparent communication with parents, caregivers, and colleagues. I will work together with families to support the child’s development both inside and outside the classroom.
  8. I pledge to continue my own learning and development as a teacher, remaining open to new methods and ideas to improve my teaching practices and better serve the needs of my students.
  9. I pledge to model kindness, respect, and responsibility in my interactions with others. I will set an example for my students by demonstrating the values I hope to instil in them.

Our children are independent, self-disciplined and are groomed to cope with the demands of Grade School. Each stage of every child’s development is nurtured and challenged through age-appropriate lessons and activities.
