Welcome
Welcome to C&K Blackbutt Community Kindergarten. We offer a quality Approved Kindergarten program for children the year before they begin Prep. We are a dedicated kindergarten so your child will take part in a structured program with other children their age.
C&K Blackbutt Community Kindergarten is located in a quiet street, near Blackbutt State School and we run sessions every Monday, Tuesday and alternate Wednesday.
Hello my name is Sandra Kirby and I am the Teacher / Director at our kindy and I have been working at C&K Blackbutt Community Kindergarten since January 2015. I am a Qualified Teacher registered with the Queensland College of Teachers and have been teaching young children since 2004. I am passionate about each child's right to play and learn and I love providing quality early childhood education and care that empowers children grow and reach their full potential. I believe quality education and care assists children to develop essential skills that will support them when they go to school and provides them with a lifelong love I learning. Something that I was fortunate enough to get from my C&K Kindy Teacher all those years ago. I would like to introduce you to our teaching team which also consists of Sharon Hodges and Jodie Heilig. Two amazing women in our community who are as dedicated to young children and their learning as I am. We look forward to welcoming your family to our service.
Our service has been assessed by the Australian Children’s Education and Care Quality Authority and received an overall rating of Meeting the Quality Standards. To find out more visit mychild.gov.au.

No two days are the same at C&K Blackbutt. Our teaching team tailor each day’s learning taking into account the interests of the children in the group. The spacious environment at our kindy is thoughtfully planned and well resourced. There is a focus on music, drama, literature and visual arts and time spent discovering the natural environment outdoors.
Community Spirit
Community spirit is important to us at C&K Blackbutt. We foster our strong ties to the local community by encouraging parent involvement in the daily operations of the kindergarten. We often hold and partake in community events and love connecting with local businesses and groups around us.
