About Us
A nurturing beginning for lifelong learning
For more than forty years, Albany Creek Kindergarten has been part of the local community, offering a warm, supportive environment where children are free to explore, imagine and grow. Our approach blends play-based learning with strong educational foundations, guided by caring, qualified educators.
A Safe, Nurturing Environment
- Well equipped and inviting indoor learning areas create a home-like nurturing and peaceful atmosphere.
- Expansive outdoor play area where you will find a flexible playground/obstacle course, together with road/traffic lanes, digging patch, sandpit, chicken enclosure and award-winning garden areas providing a sensory-rich environment within a natural setting.
- Large covered verandah areas allow for additional outdoor play spaces.
- A creek area adjacent to our Centre, which is regularly maintained in partnership with the local council Bushcare Program, allows our children to build a connection to their environment and community, through our Bush Kindy Program.
- A highly qualified team of educators, with many years’ experience teaching kindergarten children. All groups are led by University qualified Early Childhood Educators and qualified Assistants, who consistently work with the same children every day of their Kindergarten year.
We believe in the importance of relationships—with families, with nature, and within our wider community. Every day, we create meaningful experiences that help children build confidence, curiosity, and a love of learning that lasts well beyond kindy.
