OUR HISTORY
The service began and continues to operate as a family business. Originally Birralee opened in 1970 and was managed by Nancy Campbell, the building was constructed by her husband, Jim Campbell. The current owner and Director, Lorna Hughes, began her career in 1970 at Birralee with her mother, Nancy Campbell. The Campbell’s ran the service for more than 10 years before selling it in 1980. Lorna moved on in 1981 with the view to expand her career.
Tragically the original Birralee building was destroyed in the 1994 Como fires. This event forced the relocation of Birralee to a temporary location. Birralee was then rebuilt and reopened in its original location in April 1996.
Lorna has since returned to her beloved Birralee in 2011 as the Director and then in 2012 she purchased the service – she is now the proud owner of this Preschool.
