Welcome to Kalkee Road Children’s Centre, providing high quality early education for families in Horsham and the Wimmera region. The modern building is designed as a community hub, also offering maternal child health nurse and play groups.
Our service offers education and care for children aged 6 weeks to 6 years, including a scheduled funded kindergarten program for 3-year-olds and 4-year-olds. With a dedicated team of passionate professionals who have values in play-based learning. Our educational approach views the environment as the third teacher and allows for children to move freely between the indoor and outdoor environments. The educational team uses a mix of intentional teaching and child led programming to foster the children’s skill sets.
We prepare all meals onsite, providing a diverse range of meals for the children to experience. We have strong beliefs in community connections and value the input from our stakeholders.

Our Approach
One Tree’s educational program aligns with the Victorian Early Years Learning and the National Framework. We are inspired by the Reggio Emilia philosophical belief, that educators are co-learners who collaborate with children.
We’re displaying the Kinder Tick to show we’re an approved provider of a Victorian Government funded and approved kindergarten program. That means our service delivers a play-based learning program, led by a qualified early childhood teacher.
The Kinder Tick shows we meet the criteria in the funding guidelines set out by the Victorian Government — which means you can have confidence your child’s learning and development will be supported by qualified early childhood teachers and educators through a responsive, evidence-based learning program.
