Our Centre
The NEW Eucalyptus Parade Kindergarten, has two large rooms where we offer both 3-year old and 4-year old kindergarten programs.
At the Y, our curriculum has been built to reflect both the National Quality Framework and Victoria Early Years Learning Frameworks. Where possible we like to engage with the children so they can have a voice in their education. We invite children to make suggestions on how the room should be set up to maximise their learning! Children are also encouraged to set up and pack away their own activities.
Having so much space in this new centre helps us to create different play and learning areas. We have a range of recycled, natural and man-made materials in each room and also large windows which allows us to have lots of natural light that creates a calm environment for children. Within our rooms, there are numerous activities set up to encourage group play and collaboration. In addition to this, we have quiet places which allow children to reflect and have time to themselves.
Eucalyptus Parade Kindergarten has a stimulating outdoor space providing a large thriving educational hub for the children to enjoy. The vibrant area includes a sandpit, cubby house, outdoor chalk board, water play, age appropriate play equipment, a yarning circle for story time and Acknowledgement to Country and our very own veggie patch where we teach children about the importance of sustainability and the environment. Our outdoor play space is covered with large umbrellas to protect children when playing in both Summer and Winter.
At kinder the children and family provide snacks and lunches. However, cooking is a very important part of our curriculum. Children can participate in making birthday cakes to celebrate their peer’s birthday!
Our educators create an open dialogue between parents, educators and children and are always happy to check in with you to discuss your child’s progress.
The Storypark Platform is the way we connect with our families. It’s a great resource for educators, children and families to track milestones in your child’s learning.
We can wait to meet you and be part of your child’s early learning journey
