Ripponlea Kindergarten 25 Carrington Grove, Ripponlea, Victoria 3183

Welcome to Ripponlea Kindergarten, a prestigious establishment nestled in the beautiful Carrington Grove of Australia. As a point of interest and school, our institution offers a nurturing, dynamic, and creative environment for children aged 3-5 years old.

At Ripponlea Kindergarten, we pride ourselves on our play-based programs that cater to both 3-4 year olds and 4-5 year olds. Our programs are designed to foster growth, development, and exploration, both indoors and outdoors. We believe in providing a well-rounded education that encourages curiosity, imagination, and social interaction.

In 2024, we have exciting plans to expand our offerings. We will be introducing a funded 3-year-old kindergarten group with a duration of 7.5 hours, as well as two funded 4-year-old kindergarten groups with a duration of 15 hours. This expansion ensures that we can provide even more opportunities for our students to thrive and excel.

The 3-year-old Warrin group will run on Wednesday mornings and Thursday afternoons, offering flexibility for parents. Our 4-year-old Gawarn group will have sessions on Mondays and Tuesdays, providing a structured and engaging curriculum. Additionally, our 4-year-old Walert group will have the unique experience of bush kinder on Wednesdays, immersing children in nature, followed by regular kindergarten sessions on Thursdays and Fridays.

One of our standout programs is our Bush Kinder, which has been featured in an article published in The Guardian. This program allows children to develop a deep connection with nature while learning valuable skills. We are immensely proud of the experiences and growth that our students have achieved through this initiative.

Due to the high demand for places in our 2024 program, we encourage all parents to register with the Glen Eira council. By registering, you ensure that your child has the opportunity to attend either the 3-year-old or 4-year-old kindergarten next year. The council will begin offering places to registered children as early as mid-June, so don't miss out on securing a spot for your little one.

Ripponlea Kindergarten acknowledges and pays respect to the Boon Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation, the Traditional Custodians of the land where our institution stands. We also extend our respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and their Elders, past and present.

Child safety is of utmost importance to us at Ripponlea Kindergarten. We are committed to creating a Child Safe environment, where protecting children from harm and abuse is ingrained in the everyday thinking and practice of our dedicated staff members.
