Opened in 1947 and set in beautiful bushland, Studley Park Kindergarten in Kew is a wonderful place to start your child’s early education.We are a small, community-based kindergarten [45 families per annum] offering a three-year-old and a four-year-old program as well as various options for extended care.We aim to foster within the children:

• a positive attitude to life
• a love of learning and ownership of their individual learning
• strong self-esteem
• independence
• confidence to attempt new things, challenge themselves and express thoughts & ideas
• resilience
• willingness to try again
• acceptance of others/team work
• happiness!

We do this through implementing:

• dedicated kindergarten staff
• high child/staff interactions
• one close-knit class for each age group
• two outdoor ‘natural’ play areas
• special events/incursions each term
• weekly music program with a specialist teacher (4 year-old group)
• social events for families
• community involvement
• a flexible emergent curriculum with extended periods of uninterrupted play
