Choosing the right Kindergarten program is a major decision—and one that can shape your child’s school journey and beyond. At Creative Hands Early Learning Centre, we offer a strong, play-based Kindergarten experience designed to build your child’s confidence, curiosity, and readiness for school.
With 2026 Kindergarten enrolments now open at our Point Cook centre and new locations in Werribee, Shepparton, and Thornhill Park opening soon, families have more opportunities than ever to join a learning community that values quality, care, and connection.
Here’s what makes our Kindy program different.
Three university-trained ECTs in every Kindergarten room
At Creative Hands ELC, we’re proud to provide a strong teaching team in every Kindergarten room. Each class is led by three fully qualified Early Childhood Teachers (ECTs) who bring extensive knowledge, diverse experience, and a deep understanding of early childhood development.
This means your child benefits from:
- More individual attention and meaningful relationships
- A variety of teaching approaches and personalities
- Stronger support across all areas of learning
Our team of ECTs work collaboratively to ensure each child is recognised as capable, unique, and ready to thrive.
A school-ready approach that starts with play
We believe children learn best when they feel confident, secure, and engaged. That’s why our Kindergarten program follows a play-based, intentional teaching approach aligned with the Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework (VEYLDF).
Our Kindy curriculum focuses on:
- Social and emotional skills like friendship, cooperation, and resilience
- Early literacy and numeracy through storytelling, symbols, and patterns
- Creativity and problem-solving through open-ended play
- Independence and confidence in routines and transitions
By building these foundations through joyful learning, children are supported to take the next step into school with enthusiasm and self-belief.
Strong partnerships with families
You know your child best—and we believe that the best learning outcomes come from strong partnerships between families and educators.
Throughout your child’s Kindergarten year, our team provides:
- Ongoing communication through Storypark and in-person conversations
- Personalised learning plans tailored to your child’s interests and goals
- Collaborative planning for school transition, including feedback from families
Whether it’s a quick chat at drop-off or a planned meeting to discuss progress, we make sure families always feel informed, included, and supported.
