The Canberra Preschool Society (CPS) has collaborated with the ACT Government to provide an affordable, quality preschool education for Canberra children for over 65 years. The CPS executive has inducted Nerida Gill (Admin Bandit founder) as a Life Member for “rendering distinguished and valuable service to preschool education in the Territory”. Preschool education in the Territory has benefited from Nerida providing a software package for treasurers to easily claim back the GST input credits, along with ongoing support and training of preschool treasurers through a multi-award winning community business partnership with CPS.

Nerida said “I am humbled and honoured that the membership deems my contribution, personally and through Admin Bandit, as significant. It has been a privilege to have an ongoing partnership with CPS for 11 years. When I took on the role of preschool treasurer in 1999, I could not have imagined that it would lead to building a global company providing software for treasurers of grass roots organisations of all kinds in Australia and overseas”.

When presenting the honour, Paul Webster CPS President said “Nerida’s honour is nothing less than her due for her outstanding contribution to preschools.”
