History
The Kindergarten was built on land purchased by the Kindergarten Union of South Australia on 30th March 1979. Plans for the building were submitted to the Noarlunga Council and approved for building on the 6th February 1981. The building was completed on the 2nd December 1981. The Centre was first occupied during 1982 and was officially opened by Mr. Lance Hoare, from the Kindergarten Union of South Australia, on 2nd April 1982.

Recent additions/ improvements to the centre have been many new understory bushes and trees planted, a digging patch, raised vegetable gardens, chicken coop and 3 chickens.

        Inside, the children's bathroom has been completely refurbished, with new water saving taps, and toilet
        cisterns.

Features
Please feel free to see us at any time to see the Kindergarten in action
We have a lovely setting amongst mature gum trees backed by a creek where ducks occasionally swim. We are environmentally focussed and believe that children learn  best by interacting both with peers and staff in a variety of learning situations, both structured and informal.
