Kindalin West Pennant Hills is a child care centre for children aged up to 5 years. With three spacious rooms, the children are kept busy with fun and inclusive activities. The centre is open from 7:30 am - 6:00 pm.
Outside in the playgrounds, the children enjoy the sandpit, water play, cubby house, art easels, obstacle course, or riding on the bike track. Sustainability is a focus at this centre, and children love to lend a hand with the vegetable and herb garden.
With over 30 years of experience, Kindalin aims to provide every child with a stimulating and challenging environment in which to grow and learn. The provision of an open learning environment and exploratory creative programs enhance each child’s individuality and ability to develop to their full potential.
The Kindalin philosophy and curriculum are based on years of experience and up-to-date early childhood research which recognises the importance of children’s active, hands on involvement in their learning.
Ideal for commuting parents, the centre is just off Castle Hill Road, offers easy access to the M2, and is across the road from Cherrybrook Railway Station.
At Kindalin, children are cared for in an environment that is both stimulating and challenging. The seven core beliefs of the centre’s philosophy are:
- Partnerships between the children, families and educators.
- Environments should be both positive and nurturing, seeing children as individuals who are competent and capable learners.
- Active Learning is encouraged as children explore their surroundings and interact with others.
- Family support is offered where parents take an active role in their child’s programming. All cultures are celebrated and valued.
- Community involvement is encouraged, visiting and engaging with other groups and spaces within the local area.
- Team Culture where educators are respected individually as well as working within a professional group that encourages development and reflection.
- Sustainability as part of the culture and curriculum, to teach children to learn and respect the environment.
