On Friday 4 September, professional wedding and family photographer — and Children's House mum — Katrina from Films and Stills will be visiting the preschool to offer Father's Day Mini Photo Sessions.
These short and relaxed 7-minute sessions will include a mix of candid and gently posed photos taken around our preschool grounds. They're a lovely way to capture special moments with Dad, Grandad, Pop, or another much-loved parental figure.
This is a very special offer — a professional family photography session like this would usually cost hundreds of dollars. We're so grateful to Katrina for generously volunteering her time to support our preschool.
A taste of what your family session could look like.

For $70.00, each family will receive:

The chance to support our preschool fundraiser
📬 Photo delivery
Photos will be delivered approximately 2–4 weeks after the session. Please note that photos will arrive after Father's Day, making them a beautiful keepsake rather than a gift available on the day.
🕣 Booking your time slot
To help the morning run smoothly, families who are planning to stay at preschool throughout the morning are kindly asked to book a later time slot where possible. This helps keep the earlier appointments available for families who need to get to work.
Book your session
Bookings are limited and are expected to fill quickly. Two quick steps: pick your time, then pay to confirm.
Step 1 · Pick your time slot
Can't see the booking calendar? Book directly on Calendly or email us with your name, your child's name and your preferred time between 8:30 am and 12:00 pm.
Step 2 · Pay for your session — $70 per family
How would you like to pay?
💳 Card payments include a 2.2% card processing fee — this is Square's fee, passed on at cost (the school receives none of it). Your total: $70 + $1.54 fee = $71.54. No fee applies to bank transfer.
Payments are processed securely by Square. You'll receive a confirmation email straight away.
✅ Payment received — your session is confirmed! A confirmation email is on its way. Make sure you've also picked a time slot in Step 1.
Card payments aren't available right now — please pay by bank transfer instead.

⚠️ Important — you MUST use your reference code
When making your transfer, copy the reference above exactly into your bank's reference / description field. This code is the only way we can match your payment to your booking — if it's missing or incorrect, we cannot guarantee your payment will be matched and your session may not be confirmed.
The reference fills in automatically from your surname — P1 = 1 photo session (e.g. P1 SMITH).
Pressing confirm sends us your details so we can match your transfer — then just pay $70 using the reference above.
✅ Booking received! Now just transfer $70 using reference — don't forget the reference — and make sure you've picked a time slot in Step 1.
