About Wallaroo
Wallaroo Preschool is in the heart of the community. We are very lucky to be located in the Community Centre, right next to the Primary School. This helps us to build strong working relationships with other professionals to support the health, well-being and education of the children and families attending this wonderful preschool.
We provide a broad, well-rounded curriculum for three and four-year-old children, giving them opportunities to learn, exercise, play and get along with other children whilst they develop their language, physical and cognitive skills.
We are very excited to be working with a PhD student from Monash University who will be looking at ways that we can get better at teaching oral language skills. We know that for children to do well at school and in life, they need to talk well and to understand what others are saying to them. Being involved in this project means that our children will be better prepared when they start school.
In 2021, Wallaroo will be running a combined 3 & 4 Year old program in effort to ensure that all children can access the program. Please click here to learn more about Multi Aged Kindergarten
