Kippa Ring Kindergarten & Preschool

Kindergarten
3.5 years - 5 years

For over fifty years, Kippa-ring Kindergarten and Preschool has been providing children of the Peninsula and the surrounding areas with quality Early Childhood Education.

It began when a group of people within the community saw a need for early education to be locally available. All that you see is testimony to the vision and hard work of families, community, and staff. Life here revolves around children and providing the very best environment for optimum learning. Here, the community, parents, and staff come together in a uniquely personal way, providing a positive and dynamic springboard to life and education by acknowledging and respecting families from culturally diverse backgrounds.

At Kippa-ring 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, Kippa-ring 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.

Programs

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.
