READ MOREThe Natural Kinder Environment
Our kinder is a special and significant meeting place and our large outdoor space allows us to spend lots of time exploring the outside world and playing under the shade of the beautiful river red gum tree. Estimated to be more than 300 years old and of great significance to the area and to First Nations people, we know this tree is special and love having it as a central part of our outdoor space.

The playground next door at Illaroo Reserve is a natural extension of the kinder and the perfect place to make new friendships before or after kinder. This is where the kinder experience meets the community and where your child first practises the skills and lessons they have learnt in kinder.
