Why is Kindy important?

Our vision is to make our children `2 way strong’. 

To be `2 way strong’ we endeavour to make children proud and strong in their Indigenous identity and to be successful when engaging with the non-indigenous community.

To make our program successful, we encourage families to come into the centre to participate in the program with their child.  We value any contributions that families have to offer.

We also recognise that children come into our centre with lots of different skills and knowledge’s.   We venture to build a genuine relationship with the children and their families so that each child will reach their full potential.

A safe and supportive environment is essential to creating a positive learning environment. The educators aim to create this environment by working with children, families and community about the needs of being safe and for children to aim to take risks at unfamiliar learning experiences.

Our Kindy follows the Queensland Kindergarten Learning Guidelines to create programs that will provide the students with the fundamental skills needed to transition into Prep and be prepared for the wonderful journey of learning.
