Kelvin Kindergarten

We take pride in our small and distinctive centres. We value each child as a unique individual and believe in their capabilities as confident learners. Our curriculum is designed to enhance every child's learning and developmental outcomes, encompassing aspects such as their identity, community connections, well-being, confidence as learners, and communication skills.

Recognizing our role in supporting children as effective communicators, active learners, and individuals who feel connected to their world, we align our centers and the professional philosophies of our educators. By creating a sense of belonging for each child, we believe they will feel free to embrace their true selves and become something wonderful.

Our top priority is meeting the needs of the children, their families, and our staff to the highest standards possible.
