Mudjimba Community Kindergarten & Preschool
Welcome to Mudjimba Community Kindergarten & Preschool. At Mudjimba Community Kindergarten we value building genuine connections and fostering trust with children, families and community. We place emphasis on the emotional and social development of children, ensuring that their well- being and happiness are central to our educational philosophy. We are deeply committed to embedding a play-based program where children’s voices and interests are respected and listened to. We value children's need to play and recognise it as a fundamental aspect of children's development, where they learn about themselves, their environment, and others. Play is seen as meaningful work that helps children make sense of the world around them.
Our bush surrounds and open spaces are considered a special ‘gift’ to us here at Mudjimba Kindy. We know how important connecting with nature is for our wellbeing and also in gaining understandings around respecting and protecting our natural world, building knowledge about preservation and protection. We strongly believe that interacting with and ‘in’ our bush area is what will develop these genuine, deeper connections and understandings.
We access our back bush area on a regular basis and take the children on excursions to our local beach down the end of our road. How lucky are we to have so much nature on our doorstep!
