Centre Manager - Felixstow World of Learning

“Children are only young once so we want them to enjoy exploring the world. ”

My name is Trish Furey and I am the Centre Manager of Felixstow World of Learning. I have been working in the industry for over 17 years and I hold a Diploma in Children’s Services and have worked in a variety of roles over the years. 

When I was younger I always wanted to become a vet. However, after doing work experience and seeing the negative side of the job I decided to go into child care. Every day is different and we have so much fun while we educating your child and setting up environments for your children to explore. 

I enjoy every part of my job. Supporting families with the big step into child care and the challenges of everyday life. I pride myself in ensuring my centre offers the best service to families and education to the children. 

I am a hands-on manager so you will often find me supporting in the rooms or helping with cleaning duties. When I talk to you about your child’s development, behaviour or routine you can rest assured it’s because I have been your child’s educator. 

Children are only young once so we want them to enjoy exploring the world. This will be a messy experience, so pack some changes of clothes. The educators will plan for your child as an individual to ensure they are challenged. 

At Felixstow World of Learning, I arrange for health professionals to attend on a regular basis to check all of the children babies through to kindy children. We have optometrist, podiatrist and dentist four times a year. We do this to ensure each child reaches their full potential and ensure nothing is holding them back. This is a free service I offer to all families. 

I look forward to meeting you all soon when you come for a tour of Felixstow World of Learning.
