“I love bush kinder. I love to play outside and climb trees and jump into the hole. I love everything.”- Skye, 4, 2018
Alexander Thomson Uniting Kindergarten is a welcoming and inclusive kindergarten located in the heart of Belmont, Geelong.
We operate with an ethos of caring and respect, reflecting the values of our unique community in Geelong’s southern suburbs. We are conveniently located near Belmont’s High Street next door to the church tennis courts, often used for fun activities.
To showcase our facility we have created a 3-D Virtual Tour with a dollhouse view and a highlight reel.
Our urban oasis is a creative environment where children can express themselves. We place a strong emphasis on outside activities such as climbing, sports, and gardening which improves children’s key developmental skills including coordination, balance, and posture. Our indoor and outdoor spaces are fully equipped to help children thrive in their early years of education.
Our kindergarten features:
We help children get in touch with nature. Our Bush Kinder sessions encourage children to care for the environment around them. We promote sustainable living and encourage children to develop everyday sustainable practises. Children at our centre foster a relationship of respect and stewardship for the environment through our key sustainability activities and initiatives.
A healthy body equals a healthy mind. That’s why we strive to provide children with healthy, fresh and nutritious food sourced locally and from our very own fruit and vegetable garden. We understand the importance of healthy eating in children’s early development, and we work closely with families to educate them about healthy eating and nutrition.
We understand the importance of family and community in developing children’s sense of belonging and connectivity. We encourage families to take an active role in our students’ early learning development. Through many channels and initiatives, parents can participate in everything from fundraising and social events to having their say through the Parent Advisory Committee.
