HIPPY East Geraldton

Child Australia is proud to announce the commencement of a two-year HIPPY (Home Interaction Program for Parents and Youngsters) East Geraldton program.
From January 2011, families living in Rangeway, Utakarra and Karloo with pre-school aged children (around 4 years old) will be invited to join the parenting and early childhood enrichment program which empowers parents and carers to be their child’s first teacher. 
Children join HIPPY in the year before they start formal schooling (usually around four years old). The program builds the confidence and skills of parents and carers to create a positive learning environment to prepare their child for school including understanding more about child development and the way children learn and providing opportunities to enjoy time with their parents.
HIPPY East Geraldton is funded by the Australian Government Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations through the Home Interaction Program for Parents and Youngsters and will be coordinated by Child Australia’s Central Inclusion Support Agency with Rangeway Primary School, which has provided principal support.
HIPPY East Geraldton is open to families who:
  • Live in Rangeway, Utakarra and Karloo
  • Have a pre-school aged child (around 4 years old)
  • Would like to give their child the best transition to school
  • Would like to connect with other local families
