Kawana Community Kindergarten & Preschool

Kindergarten
3.5 years - 5 years

Kawana Community Kindergarten and Preschool has served the community since 1989. We offer a nurturing environment where children can thrive through play, exploration, and creativity.

We are proud of the strong and respectful relationships we build with our children, their families and our wider community. Our natural, unhurried and homely environment welcomes children and their families to play, explore, create and make new friendships.

We embrace each child’s unique spirit and believe they will thrive by developing a sense of belonging, connectedness, and wellbeing. This is reflected in our underlying values, where we work on building strong foundations of love, care, respect, and mindfulness.

At Kawana Community Kindergarten and Preschool, we have 2 kindy groups to choose from, so you can enrol your child in a group that best meets your family's needs.

As an affiliated centre of C&K, Kawana Community Kindergarten and Preschool receives support from C&K as the Central Governing Body but operates as an independent incorporated association managed by a volunteer management committee. Centres affiliated with C&K receive comprehensive support in governance, including managing kindergarten and inclusion funding, training for committees and educators, advice and support regarding inclusion, use of the C&K brand, curriculum approach and resource materials.

Groups

Kindergarten, also known as pre-prep or preschool, is a program for children who are turning 4 by June 30 in the year before they attend school. C&K’s kindy programs are government-approved and led by experienced and university qualified teachers. Our program supports children’s curiosity, creativity, problem solving, resilience and real-world knowledge and skills.

At C&K, we know that children do not learn in isolation, so we approach learning as a collaborative relationship between teachers, educators, children and families. We believe children are powerful learners, active citizens, thinkers and theorisers - this is at the heart of our early childhood curriculum. We've designed our indoor and outdoor spaces to ignite imaginations and nurture healthy minds and bodies. Learning through play is an integral part of our education program. Our educators skilfully enrich and extend children's play experiences, creating a learning program that is tailored and meaningful for your child.
