About the Provider
It is not an average mission to provide the best child development on the planet but then New Horizon Academy is not an average company. New Horizon Academy is an exceptional company grown out of the commitment to children and families that Sue Dunkley our founder made in 1971 when she opened her first child care program. Sue's ongoing belief is that there is nothing more important than the self-esteem of every child.
