Welcome to Stones Corner Kindy nestled within Hanlon Park and surrounded by nature. Originally established in 1964 under the name Stones Corner-Buranda Preschool and on the other side of Norman creek in Hanlon Park, Greenslopes, the kindy moved to the current location after the floods in 1974. A name change followed and it saw the now Stones Corner Community Kindergarten Incorporated become affiliated with C&K. We are a not-for-profit kindy run by the families of the current students through an elected Management Committee.
Our centre Director and educators support the management committee in providing a beautiful educational environment for the children to explore and learn within. We promote family involvement in all areas of the kindy and value our connection to the local community. Stones Corner Kindy has provided pre-schooling services to the local area for over 55 years. We are proud of our ongoing connections with past students and families, and with the local Bushcare group, schools and businesses. Our vision is to ensure each child develops a positive love of learning, care and respect for life, people and the environment.
At Stones Corner Community Kindergarten, we have two kindy groups to choose from. All groups ensure children receive the same number of hours of education across the year. We also run a Nature Day on Wednesdays from 8:30am to 2:30pm (fees apply). Nature Day is an additional day on offer to current enrolled families. Events of the day will involve being outdoors the majority of the day with fortnightly community excursions to Norman Creek parklands.

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.
Queensland Kindergarten Funding: The Queensland Government provides funding for eligible-aged children (children turning 4 by 30 June, in the year they attend a kindy program) attending a centre delivering a government-approved kindergarten program. This funding allows your eligible-aged child to attend kindergarten for free.
Non-eligible-aged Children: Enrolment priority is given to eligible-age children, but if there are places available, we welcome 3-year-old children to enrol and attend for two years. The Queensland Kindergarten Funding does not apply for 3-year-old children, and the non-eligible kindy daily fee will apply. Please contact us for more information on fees for 3-year-old children and to discuss your family's situation.
