C&K Walker Street Community Childcare Centre in Bundaberg welcomes children from 6 weeks to 5 years old and provides quality early childhood education and care Monday through Friday. We offer flexible booking options so families can choose the hours of care to suit their individual needs.

As a small centre that feels like family, our environment provides feelings of safety, security, and support while children are in the care of our qualified educators. At C&K, we support our team in nurturing play-based learning, developing caring relationships with children and families, and fostering a lifelong love of learning with every child in our care.

Our centre features a combination of both age-based rooms and communal learning spaces where siblings and children of all ages can come together to learn and play. The large outdoor area is designed to take advantage of the natural environment and encourages children to explore, discover, play, and engage with nature.

We strive to create a sustainable, nature-based program that allows children to grow and learn in a diverse community. We acknowledge that parents are a child's first and primary educators. Both families and children are invited to share our journey and co-construct learning through reciprocal interactions that build inclusive relationships.

C&K childcare centres deliver quality education and care programs with a focus on our unique infant and toddler approach, and provides the government-approved kindergarten program for 4-year-olds.

C&K Walker Street is located at 134 Walker Street, Norville, in Bundaberg. The centre is situated 250 metres from the TAFE Queensland Bundaberg Campus.

C&K has developed an Infant and Toddler Approach, which informs the way we care for and educate our babies and toddlers. Our philosophy for this age is to “slow down” and be in the moment with your child as they learn and explore the world. We focus on developing a deep and trusting relationship with each child.

All C&K childcare centres deliver C&K's quality kindergarten program. Kindergarten, also known as pre-prep or preschool, is a program for children who are turning 4 by June 30 in the year before they attend school. C&K’s kindy programs are government-approved and led by experienced and university qualified teachers. Our program supports children’s curiosity, creativity, problem solving, resilience and real-world knowledge and skills.

At C&K, we know that children do not learn in isolation, so we approach learning as a collaborative relationship between teachers, educators, children and families. We believe children are powerful learners, active citizens, thinkers and theorisers - this is at the heart of our early childhood curriculum. We've designed our indoor and outdoor spaces to ignite imaginations and nurture healthy minds and bodies. Learning through play is an integral part of our education program. Our educators skilfully enrich and extend children's play experiences, creating a learning program that is tailored and meaningful for your child.

Your child’s learning and care journey is shared with you via conversations with your child’s educators, through written documentation and through Storypark (an app and website).
