About Karingal East
East Karingal Kindergarten welcomes you to work with the teachers and educators as a team to ensure your child has a very happy, educational and rewarding experience. Community Kinders Plus has formed a partnership with Frankston Special Developmental School to offer an inclusive kindergarten program. Our inclusive play based program caters to individual needs and offers experiences that are appropriate to your child’s stage of development.
In 2017, our kindergarten was refurbished; we now have a welcoming, clean and vibrant space in which children can learn and have fun.
Children will be encouraged to develop independence, self-awareness and a feeling of self-worth. They will have many opportunities to develop warm, caring relationships with adults and peers. Our kindergarten is a nurturing and most importantly, fun environment for all children and families.
This year, our kindergarten is being refurbished; we will have a welcoming, clean space for us the learn in and we can’t wait!
