Open since 1991, St Ives Chase Kindergarten is a licensed Long Day Care Centre open from 7am to 6pm, catering for up to 40 children aged between 2.5 - 6 years for 2 to 5 days per week. We provide a welcoming, safe and stimulating environment where children can become active learners, exploring and learning through a wide variety of experiences and activities each day. We provide a varied program for all children based on the children’s interests, observations and family input. The Centre’s program incorporates the Emergent Curriculum and the Early Years Learning Framework. At our Centre we encourage family input into the program and believe in creating a strong link between the home and the Centre.
