About

At Beaconsfield Kindergarten we provide a family centred practice which offers high-quality and nurturing early childhood education for families living in the Cardinia and Casey areas.  Our kindergarten operates across two key locations in Beaconsfield, O’Neil Rd and Woods St, and offers a range of different programs and timetables to suit the needs of your child and family. We provide a safe and inclusive environment, where all children are encouraged to express their cultural identity. We are committed to ensuring the safety, dignity and rights of all children. 

Children need the opportunity to develop life skills which will enable them to thrive in an ever-changing world. At Beaconsfield Kindergarten we provide a wide range of experiences related to the stages of development as well as individual and group needs. We pride ourselves on working together with our community to establish strong foundations for children’s lifelong learning and for them to feel safe, valued and proud of their efforts and achievements

As an inclusive centre, we strive to:
•  encourage the involvement of our families in developing individual learning plans
   to meet the needs of their children.
•  recognise the valuable resources parents possess and invite them to share their        
   skills and knowledge with our kindergarten.
•  encourage the involvement of parents and extended family in our daily sessions.
•  welcome children with additional needs and their families.
•  work with families to achieve high expectations for every child. We recognise each
    child’s strengths and interests and extend/support these through providing
    experiences within the program, and differentiating the program to ensure that all
    children experience success and that these are celebrated amongst our group and
    with the child’s family.

At Beaconsfield Kindergarten we believe that children thrive best when the learning environment:
• has agreed boundaries, limits and consequences.
• has familiar routines and expectations.
• encourages children to participate in both planned and self-initiated learning
  experiences.
• provides rich literacy and numeracy experiences each day.
• provides opportunities to enjoy special days and events at kindergarten with peers
  and family.
• introduces children to a wide range of individuals or groups working within our
   community.
•  promotes and values educators, children and their families as lifelong learners and
   researchers.

Beaconsfield Kindergarten acknowledges the Bunurong People, the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we work and learn. We pay our respects to their elders, past and present and emerging.
