Nar Nar Goon Kindergarten

Kindergarten
Cardinia Shire Council, Boonwurrung Country

Welcome to Nar Nar Goon Kindergarten, where we create an exciting and safe space for young learners to discover and flourish.

Our approach

Our play-based programs cater specifically to 3 and 4-year-olds, providing a diverse range of activities using materials like clay, paint, mud, water, sand, blocks, and various loose parts. These resources encourage children to explore, create, and develop a positive attitude towards learning.

Our focus

At Nar Nar Goon, we strongly value the outdoors and its role in early learning. We focus on outdoor play and hands-on experiences, allowing children to enjoy the changing seasons and engage in garden activities. We use natural and recycled materials as much as possible with our young learners through activities like water wise activities, worm farming, and vegetable gardening. Our goal is to create a holistic learning environment where children not only thrive but also develop a strong connection with the world around them.

Our Service

We are a 32-place sessional kindergarten offering:

• Sessional 3-year-old kindergarten; and
• Sessional 4-year-old kindergarten.

Our kindergarten terms align with Victorian school terms.

Our educational program

We offer free Victorian Government funded sessional kindergarten for three and four-year-olds. Our programs are guided by the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) and National Quality Standards (NQS) to support each child’s learning and development.

One Tree’s educational program aligns with the Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework. We are inspired by the Reggio Emilia philosophy that educators are co-learners who collaborate with children.
