Back Door (for inward goods) Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Tchingal: One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current
guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.As there has been no response to the previous note I'm archiving this cache to stop it from showing up in my reviewer searches and new placement checks.

Please remember to return to the GZ and collect the cache if you have not already done so. We don't want to litter our environment with Geotrash and if you have any TB's or coins in your cache I'm sure the owners would want them moved on.

Geocache Description:

Back door for inward goods, down and out for little caches.

B.Y.O PENCIL/PEN & HAPPY CACHING!

The cache can be challenge on week days, but if your brave enough to give it a go you are likely to hear the many little voices from around the corner. It is a delightful sound and coming from the many children at Halifax Street Children's Centre & Preschool.

HALIFAX STREET CHILDRENS CENTRE & PRESCHOOL HISTORY:

It all started back in 1910 when the fourth kindergarten in South Australia was opened in the Madge Church Hall in Halifax Street. Kindergartens in those days were a new and radical idea which were treated with some suspicion by the city’s poor, for whom they were established to help. The benefits of the idea soon caught on and the Halifax Street Free Kindergarten grew in leaps and bounds.

By 1924 the Church Hall had outlived its usefulness and the Committee was successful in securing a bequest of £2000 pounds from the estate of the late Miss Alice Keith Sheridan, and a new building was planned. In 1925 the new premises were opened in Cairns Street and was the first purpose-built Kindergarten. Keith Sheridan Kindergarten was born.

With the advent of the Second World War, Keith Sheridan became one of two Centres to cater for the needs of children whose mothers were working for the war effort. The Centre was open from 7am until 7pm and all meals were provided.

In 1953 the Committee and the Kindergarten union arranged the purchase of a property at the rear of the Centre in Halifax Street and the land was used as a playground, and in 1972 the Kindergarten Union purchased a small cottage to the west of the Centre on Cairns Street and demolished it to give even more room. In this year, Lady Bonython resigned from the Committee after 59 years of service.

In 1983, a new building was opened facing on to Halifax Street. The 58 year old two-storey building was demolished and a playground and garden established at the rear, backing onto Cairns Street.

The Centre continued its long tradition of providing a Kindergarten program and offering child care for the over 2’s. The Centre was funded under the ‘Bowen’ formula which offered generous funding and was an Education Department managed site. From the beginning of 1997 the Centre became a community managed service and a Management Committee was established to run the Centre. From this year the Centre offered care for under 2’s in new additions and alterations to the building.

From March 2000, the Centre continued to offer care and education services to the city’s community of residents and workers under the name of Halifax St Children’s Centre and Preschool. It is with pride that the current Management Committee and staff acknowledge the Centre’s history and the people who made it possible over so many years, and in whose great traditions we follow.
