Tooradin Kindergarten provides centre-based care for children aged from 3 to 5 years, located in Tooradin, Victoria. 

Services

At Tooradin Kindergarten, we believe every child needs a fun learning environment in order to develop life-long skills. We allow children plenty of time to play, while at the same time learning. Our goal is to help children grow in to strong, healthy and confident individuals who respect themselves, other people and the world around them. 

The centre follows the Early Years Learning Framework which is based on five principles: partnership, respect for diversity, high expectations and equity, ongoing learning and reflective practice, and secure and respectful relationships. The framework centres around a strong sense of wellbeing, confident and involved learning, effective communication, connections with the world, and a strong sense of identity.

Our kindergarten educators are highly trained and experienced in kindergarten level education. We have a strong commitment to ensuring your child receives the care they need to transition to mainstream school. We recognise that all children are intelligent, capable and creative and they have the capacity to succeed, regardless of their circumstances outside the educational facility.

Our kindergarten program is designed to meet government guidelines and to support your child’s journey into mainstream schooling. We provide a safe and nurturing environment, where children can develop a sense of self-worth and self-awareness. Children are involved in play-based learning that allows them to explore their own abilities and interests, from garden projects through to role playing.
