About our kindy
Welcome to Shailer Road Community Kindergarten. Shailer Road Kindergarten has been established since 1991 and is positioned next to a natural bushland reserve in Shailer Park. Our air conditioned centre has a large outdoor play space at the front and our classrooms are complimented by wide covered verandas on both sides. We are a double-unit centre which operates two alternative kindergarten programs – a 5-day fortnight in one unit and 2 long days in the second. We also offer a weekly pre-kindergarten class for children aged 3 years.
Our kindergarten is committed to the development of a love of life-long learning within each person who enters it, through providing quality early childhood education and reflective practice in a caring, fun, safe environment.
C&K Affiliated Centre
As an affiliated centre of C&K, Shailer Road kindy 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.

The spacious environment at our kindy is thoughtfully planned and well resourced. There is a focus on music, drama, literature and visual arts and time spent discovering the natural environment outdoors.

Community spirit is important to us at Shailer Road kindy.
