About St Dunstan’s Anglican Kindergarten
St Dunstan’s Kindergarten is a warm and inviting kindergarten with strong ties to the surrounding community.
St Dunstan's offers an extended Pre-Prep/Kindergarten program where the children come four days a week. There is an extensive outside area with opportunities for exploration, areas for physical activity and is well shaded to be enjoyed all year round.
The program focuses on encouraging the children to be actively involved in their own learning, with the ability to determine areas of interest and exploration. The intergenerational program encourages connections between the older members of the community and the kindergarten children and families.
St Dunstan's commitment to learning about sustainability and the environment has lead to the introduction of a “Bush Kinder” program and regular outings from the kindergarten to explore those natural environments that are situated close to the kindergarten.
Learn more about the centre's staff, programs, facilities and philosophies on the St Dunstan’s Kindergarten website.
