To the families of Guppys Early Learning in Townsville,
With the extreme rain and subsequent flooding around Townsville, we want to ensure we are here to support our families and staff. And with an emphasis on absolute safety and providing care and support for our families and staff, we have decided the following:
1. We have assessed our centres at Guppys Thuringowa and Guppys Wulguru, and they have sustained no damage, and based on forecasts are not subject to incur any damage from the rains and are fully accessible and operational
2. AT THIS POINT IN TIME (SUBJECT TO CHANGE), we will be opening our childcare centres at Guppys Thuringowa and Guppys Wulguru for families who need care tomorrow, Monday 3/2/2025, and we will provide school-age care (similar to vacation care) for any affected families and staff.
3. The bus operations at both centres are suspended until further notice and will be reactivated when the rains and flooding subside
4. This status to open the centres may change at any point in time if we or government authorities deem it unsafe to open and operate.
If you have any queries, do not hesitate to reach out to the management at Guppys Wulguru and Guppys Thuringowa. Again, we are here to support the families and staff of Guppys and wish you all the best during this challenging time.
Best Regards,
Guppys Early Learning Management
