Our Kindergarten Program, delivered through the C&K Learning Approach guided by the Queensland Kindergarten Learning Guidelines (QKLG), helps children develop a wide range of skills and gives them the best preparation for school and future learning through the following areas:

  • Our Curriculum - The C&K Learning Approach guided by the QKLG embeds the Mourilyan Kindergarten Philosophy in everything we do and compliments the National Early Years Framework & QKLG.
  • Our Educators - Qualified teachers and educators who are passionate about helping children learn through play so they can reach their full potential.

  • Community Partnerships - Close relationships have been built with our local schools as well as partnering with the Goondoi Art Aboriginal Corporation to learn about the local aboriginal culture.

We have 2 program groups to choose from, so you can enrol your child in a group that best meets your family's needs.

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.
