Clever Kids Early Learning Centre

Our Kindergarten Program

We understand that your child’s kindergarten year is an important one and the skills, knowledge and friendships they develop throughout this time will support them through their schooling years and beyond. When your child attends a kindergarten within a long day care setting, they receive uninterrupted and extended learning which facilitates maximum growth and development.

Under the guided wing of our Early Childhood Teacher, the kinder group develop their independence, self-help, social and academic skills in a structured and supportive environment.

Our innovative and emergent programs allow the children to contribute to the development of the curriculum which is guided by individual and group interests. In support of the learning outcomes, we seek for every child, the kinder group also participate in many intentional teaching experiences throughout the year such as water safety, road safety, school readiness, literacy and numeracy projects, cooking, pet awareness responsibility, health and hygiene, and many more.

I have been sending my first child to Clever Kids Early Learning Centre in Carrum Downs for about 6 months and honestly could not be happier. He is thriving there with the kind and knowledgeable educators and staff! He always has a blast and is cared for to the highest level possible. Couldn’t recommend this daycare highly enough. Will definitely be sending my future kiddies here!
