Rise & Shine Kindergarten - Kogarah

Rise & Shine offer a communication app that is updated regularly throughout the day with activities, nap times, meals and other important information. The parents are also welcomed into the centre for events including Mother’s and Father’s day celebrations, Parent Information evenings, Transition to School evenings, Christmas Concerts and Graduations. We also regularly send surveys to families to provide feedback and have a dedicated support team who are available to assist families.

At Rise & Shine Kindergarten™, our philosophy guides all aspects of our approach, emphasizing the transformative impact of early education and care on children, families, and the community. Committed to reconciliation, we acknowledge and respect the traditional custodians of the land and strive for meaningful connections. Recognizing families as children's primary educators, we cultivate collaborative partnerships, emphasizing open communication and consultation. Our inclusive curriculum promotes diversity and cultural awareness, creating a sense of belonging for every member. Environmental sustainability is woven into our teachings, fostering social responsibility and appreciation for nature. Strong educator-child attachments, particularly for infants and toddlers, form the foundation for confidence and thriving in our warm, home-like environment. Aligned with educational frameworks, our Shine Advantage Curriculum prioritizes holistic child development, incorporating STEM subjects through innovative learning environments like Orbit. We prioritize ongoing professional development for our dedicated crew, ensuring a reflective and valued team. As a family-owned business, our decisions prioritize the best interests of our families, crew, and community. Leaders in the early childhood sector, we believe education should be enjoyable, creating a fun and enriching environment for both children and educators alike.

At Rise & Shine Education we have developed our own unique curriculum to ensure your child is learning and developing holistically; it’s called the Shine Advantage program. Our curriculum consists of five key elements, Smart Start, Inspire, FIT, Unite and Crew.
