The work undertaken by the Hive and its partners is bound by a single goal: All children in 2770 start school well. Our initiatives have been designed and developed by engaging and building trust with the Mt Druitt community, and discovering what residents, families and community leaders need to nurture a thriving generation of children with diverse life opportunities.
Supporting families with young children to overcome barriers impacting their child’s access to early education opportunities.
Helping families navigate the health system and delivering practical and psycho-social support to help families respond to their child’s developmental needs.
Increasing participation and accessibility of developmental checks to support the early identification of developmental delays and disabilities.
Offering invaluable professional development and relationship building opportunities for early educators in the Mt Druitt area.
Delivering books right to families doorsteps and offering education about the importance, and enjoyment of reading.
