Eucalyptus Parade Kindergarten

Take a tour

Our centre

The Eucalyptus Parade Kindergarten has 2 large rooms where we offer 3-year-old and 4-year-old kindergarten programs in Donnybrook. Built in 2022 the kindergarten is located close to the Hume Anglican Grammar School and growing Donnybrook community. 

Our curriculum reflects the National Quality Framework and Victoria Early Years Learning Frameworks

Families provide snacks and lunches. However, cooking is an important part of our curriculum. Children participate in making cakes to celebrate their peers’ birthdays. 

We like to engage with the children so they can have a voice in their education. The children help set up the room to maximise their learning. We also encourage the children to set up and pack away their own activities.

Creating different play and learning areas

Having so much space in this new centre helps us to create different play and learning areas. We like to engage with the children so they can have a voice in their education. They help organise the rooms to maximise their learning and we encourage them to set up and pack away their own activities.

Each room has a range of recycled, natural and other materials. Large windows provide plenty of natural light, creating a calm environment for children. There are numerous activities to encourage group play and collaboration. We also have quiet places allowing children to reflect and have time to themselves.

A stimulating outdoor space

Eucalyptus Parade Kindergarten has a stimulating outdoor space providing a large thriving educational hub for the children to enjoy. Large umbrellas cover the area, protecting children throughout the year.

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 of Country.

We teach children about the importance of sustainability and the environment in our veggie patch. 

Building an open dialogue

Our educators build an open dialogue between parents, educators and children. They are always happy to check in with parents to discuss progress.

We connect with our families using the Storypark platform. It is a great resource enabling everyone to track learning milestones.

We can’t wait to meet you and be part of your child’s early learning journey.

Meet the manager

Vicki

Centre Manager

Hi there!

I’m Vicki and I’m the Centre Manager here at Eucalyptus Parade Kindergarten!

I’ve followed my passion for the last 10 years and have completed my Bachelor of Early Childhood, along with recently completing my Training and Assessment course.

I strive to advocate for the importance of early childhood services and the benefits for children and families.

I truly do believe that when children are provided with play-based learning experiences, we see them thrive and develop their own sense of belonging and personality.

Our educators here at EPK are highly valued and work alongside the community to ensure that we are providing children with the best possible care and learning opportunities.

I look forward to welcoming you and your family to Eucalyptus Parade Kindergarten.
