Junior Kindy – 2 years to 3 years
Pre-Kindy – 3 years to 4 years

Daily routine

The day is broken up to allow for spontaneous play, structured learning, indoor and outdoor experiences and of course, nutritious food and necessary rest.

This is an overview of the way a typical day works.

6.30 groups combine in Toddler room to enjoy a breakfast of toast

7 – 7.30 the older children move to the senior playground for outdoor play

9.00 is when our children have their morning tea of fruit and a variety of healthy snacks. The children are with their room educators for morning tea.

Morning offers a flexible routine throughout the centre according to room. Each room has activities suited to that age group.

Lunch commences around 10.45 for the younger children through to 12 for the older ones.

Rest period between 12 and 2 which varies according to each child’s needs.

Afternoon tea commences with fruit and different snacks according to the day’s menu.

The rest of the day is free play until afternoon pick up.

This timetable is a beautiful balance of everything your child needs.

Special days

Our program may include special days and special events. On those days our timetable might vary slightly.

We may have special guests such as a petting zoo or special activities with guest teachers. We like to introduce our children to local people like police officers so they can learn about what they do.

We also offer our own specialist programs in art and outdoor activities (Park).

There is something to appeal to every child and help them discover the joy of learning.

Our programs

Our play-based programs are child initiated and educator supported and follow the Early Years Learning Framework – Being, Becoming and Belonging and the Early Years National Framework.

Our programs are flexible and reflect the developmental levels and interests of each child within the group.
