C&K Kingaroy Community Kindergarten
Welcome to C&K Kingaroy Community Kindergarten, a place where play takes centre stage in your child’s education and where children are given time to explore, discover and learn.

This allows us to offer continuity and extension of learning for each child, from one day to the next.
