The Vibe

Three things you need to know

01 / OUR KINDY

Built by community, for community

Harbord Kindergarten has been part of the Freshwater family since 1947. A not-for-profit, community-run kindy where every dollar raised goes straight back to our children's learning.

02 / THE PARTY

Desert dreams meet ocean breeze

Picture flower crowns, kaftans, dusty pink sunsets and palm shadows — set against the Freshwater coastline. Live music, food trucks, and an unforgettable night out for the grown-ups.

03 / THE CAUSE

Every bid lifts a little one

Funds raised support new resources, outdoor play upgrades, and learning programs at Harbord Kindergarten. Bid generously — your kids (and ours) will feel it.

ABOUT THE CAUSE

Why we're throwing the best party Freshwater has seen.

Harbord Kindergarten

Harbord Kindergarten is a not-for-profit, community-managed early learning centre that has been part of the Freshwater community since 1947. Generations of local children have taken their first steps into learning right here.

As a community kindy, we rely on the support of families, local businesses, and friends to keep our programs thriving. Every fundraiser, every bid, every donation goes directly back into the children's experience — outdoor play upgrades, art and music programs, and the resources our educators use every day.

HARBORDCHELLA is our biggest event of the year. A grown-ups' night out with all the festival magic — and 100% of profits go straight back to our kids.
