Last week marked the official opening of Kool Beanz SUNS Harrup Park, introducing a cutting-edge childcare centre to Mackay. This state-of-the-art facility aims to alleviate the longstanding waitlists that have challenged parents seeking daycare and kindergarten options in the area, with two more centres planned for Mackay.
Kool Beanz SUNS Harrup Park houses an all-inclusive environment and is the second of its kind following in the footsteps of the facility adjacent to Heritage Bank Stadium at Carrara which was opened early in 2023.
The unique and inclusive centre, the first of three planned for the region, revolutionises childcare in Mackay with purpose specific learning environments such as an Art Studio, STEM Room, Library, Lego Room, Zen Garden and natural play spaces available for up to 94 children accommodated at the centre per day.
Gold Coast SUNS number one ticket holder and Kool Beanz owner Bruce Coulson says it’s a rewarding experience to provide such an important community asset to the Mackay region.
“The wait has been long, but the joy is immeasurable as we open Kool Beanz SUNS Harrup Park to the Mackay community,” Coulson said.
“It's remarkable to witness the high demand for spaces at Kool Beanz SUNS Harrup Park even before our official opening. This demonstrates the pressing need for reliable and inclusive childcare services in Mackay, and we are committed to meeting this demand with open arms.
“Opening Kool Beanz SUNS Harrup Park isn't just business; it's a commitment to Mackay's families, addressing the crucial need for quality childcare with a focus on all-inclusive development.”
GC SUNS Chief Executive Mark Evans says it’s an exciting day to see the Kool Beanz SUNS venture expand into the Mackay region.
“This relationship between Kool Beanz and the Gold Coast SUNS really is one-of-a-kind. We want to have a lasting impact on the community beyond football, not only on the Gold Coast but across Queensland,” Evans said.
Mackay Regional Council Director Planning, Growth and Sustainability Aletta Nugent says it is exciting to be celebrating the official opening of this wonderful facility.
“We’ve had a partnership with the SUNS since 2019 and through that we helped introduce Kool Beanz owner Bruce Coulson to the Mackay region and the business opportunities it presented,” Nugent said.
“Our Facilitating Development in the Mackay Region Policy also provided development incentives for this project.”
