Welcome
Welcome to C&K Fairview Heights Community Kindergarten. Thankyou for considering entrusting us with the care and education of your very precious child.
We are a relatively new centre, situated on the grounds of the Fairview Heights State School - not far from the Toowoomba airport. We offer a five day a fortnight program to children in the year before they start school.
Group A is offered on Monday, Tuesday and alternate Wednesday while Group B runs on alternate Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. Both groups of children attend from 8.22am until 2.30pm for forty weeks of the year.
Great Start to Kindergarten Pre-kindy Program
C&K has been successful in securing funding from the Queensland Department of Education for the Great Start to Kindergarten Pre-kindy Program. This program provides funding for community kindergartens selected by the Department to offer no-cost or low-cost three-year-old programs in terms 3 and 4 in 2022.
To be eligible for the funding, children need to have turned three by 30 June 2022.
C&K Fairview Heights Community Kindergarten is offering no-cost Pre-kindy in a kindergarten program for three-year-olds in terms 3 and 4, 2022.
Please contact the National Translating and Interpreting Service to support families with enrolments, inclusion, and medical needs forms. This service provides clarity to help remove language barriers that impact the child's needs.
Pre-kindy in a kindergarten program
Three-year-old children will attend the existing high-quality community kindergarten program alongside four-year-olds, which will complement and extend children's learning at home. It also provides learning opportunities that are not always readily available in a home context – including building relationships with teachers and learning to cooperate with peers in a group environment.
Attending this program in terms 3 and 4, 2022 will provide children with opportunities to learn alongside older children and provide an individualised and developmentally appropriate approach.
Program operating hours:
- Monday, Tuesday, and alternate Wednesdays, 8:22am - 2:30pm
- Thursday, Friday, and alternate Wednesdays, 8:22am - 2:30pm
Child-Led Learning
No two days are the same at C&K Fairview Heights. Our teaching team tailors each day’s learning, taking into account the interests of the children in the group. The spacious and natural environment at our kindy is thoughtfully planned and well resourced. There is a focus on music, drama, literature and visual arts and we allocate plenty of time for outdoor play and discovery.
Community Spirit
Community spirit is important to us at C&K Fairview Heights. We foster 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 and taking the children on excursions out into the local community.
