Getting Ready for School, Through Play

The year before school matters, and we make it count without the pressure. Our kindies build confidence, independence and the early skills they will carry into kindergarten and pre-primary, all through play and gentle intentional teaching.

Our Kindies room has a maximum of 17 children, supported by a Diploma educator and an Early Childhood Teacher.
