Nadine

3-year-old & 4-year-old Teacher 

A little from Nadine:

I am a passionate Early Childhood Educator of 37 years.

I have been lucky to know my purpose and live doing a job I love! Working with children brings such joy and satisfaction, the wonder and awe they bring to anything and everything is magical and being part of their growth and learning a real privilege.

You will find me either out walking in the mornings or dancing in 7-11 when I get my morning coffee on the way to work.

I have been a single Mum a very long time with my 3 now adult children Rebecca, Emma and Lachie.

Melinda

4-year-old Teacher & Educational Leader

A little from Melinda:

I have a Bachelor of Early Childhood Education and a passion for working with young children.

I love joining children on their learning journey, and believe that they have as much to teach me as I do them.

I have been involved in the preschool for many years in various aspects, 2025 being my 10th year in a teaching role. I’m very proud to be a part of the Gray Court community.

I am Mum to two teenage children who enjoy footy and basketball, we all enjoy watching and playing sport and going on camping adventures.

Sarah

3-year-old & 4-year-old Educator

A little from Sarah:

I have worked in Early Childhood Education since 2008 and started at Gray Court in 2018.

I love meeting new children each year and watching as they grow and develop, supporting them as needed as they become more confident learners, ready for that next stage in life.

Outside of work, I have 3 young boys who keep me busy. We enjoy weekend sports, camping trips and swimming.

Amy

3-year-old & 4-year-old Educator

A little from Amy:

I hold a Diploma in Early Childhood and I have been working in the Early Childhood setting for over 26 years. I love being able to watch the children’s growth throughout the year and seeing their confidence build in all areas!

I began working at Gray Court Pre-School in January 2020 although I have had a long affiliation with the Kinder as my children who are now in their teens both attended Gray Court in their kinder years. When a position became available to become an assistant educator at Gray Court I jumped at the chance to join a team of passionate educators. I have always loved the community feel that Gray Court Pre-school has provided.

Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my family and being involved in my children’s sporting activities. I also like getting away on weekends to my beach house.

Alana

3-year-old Educator

A little from Alana:

I love being an educator and have a Diploma in Early Childhood Education. I love how honest and imaginative children are, it is a privilege watching them grow into the special little people that they are.

Outside of work I have 3 grown up children and we like to catch up for family dinners as often as possible! We love playing board games together.

I enjoy walks that involve coffee and spending time with my special people.
