About our kindy
Welcome to C&K Oakleigh, where your child will feel safe, make friends and belong. A kindergarten with a rich history, the centre was first established in 1930 as Ashgrove Kindergarten and has been located at a number of different locations in Ashgrove and The Gap. The current building opened in January 2011, located on the Oakleigh State School’s former netball court. The school has generously allowed us to expand our outdoor space and develop unused land, giving us a total area of one acre. We have an open natural learning environment where the children explore and investigate, and extend their learning. Our teachers and educators focus on nurturing your child's curiosity, building their resilience and developing their confidence - all through the joy of learning through play.
Location
C&K Oakleigh is located on Buxton Street, Ashgrove, approximately 7 kilometres northwest of Brisbane City next to Oakleigh State School.
Child-led learning
No two days are the same at C&K Oakleigh. Our teaching team tailors each day’s learning, taking into account the interests of the children in the group. The spacious and natural environment at our kindy is thoughtfully planned and well resourced. There is a focus on music, drama, literature and visual arts and we allocate plenty of time for outdoors play and discovery.
Community spirit
Community spirit is important to us at C&K Oakleigh. We foster strong ties to the local community by encouraging parent involvement in the daily operations of the kindergarten. We often hold and partake in community events and love connecting with local businesses and groups around us and taking the children on excursions out into the local community.
