About this service

Our program and approach

In-person tours are currently limited while our team focusses on providing the kinder program. In the meantime, we welcome you to view our virtual tour and apply for the waitlist. Families on the waitlist will be invited for an in-person tour when available. Applying is free, with no obligation.

Our play-based program intentionally provides a wide range of engaging opportunities and activities based on the Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework.

When children play and explore, their imagination and curiosity are sparked – they enjoy learning and are inspired to continue learning more.
