Rebecca Hogan - Owner/Licensee
Rebecca is the Owner/Licensee of Gumelaf Gully. She has a 4 year degree in Education and Teaching and a Diploma in Children’s Services. For over ten years she has taught in Queensland, New South Wales and in the United Kingdom. Rebecca has been recognised for excellence in teaching.
She has two beautiful children.
Rebecca is extremely passionate about educating children and believes education is the key to success.
She believes Early Education is where it all begins. This is why she felt the urge to go down the Early Childhood path along with the fact that she wanted to create her own haven which was nurturing, educational and fun, `a home away from home` for her own two children and for all the other families.
Being a Mum and an Educator Rebecca knew what she wanted for her own children so now she has created an Early Education Centre with lots of love, learning, laughter, language and literacy for everyone.
