St Luke’s Highton Preschool provides high quality preschool education to the children of Geelong preparing them for transition to school.
Serving our community since 1959, all children at our kindergarten receive quality care and attention tailored to their individual needs. Situated next to St Luke’s Highton Uniting Church we are conveniently located near Highton’s main shopping area.
To showcase our facility we have created a 3-D Virtual Tour with a dollhouse view and a highlight reel.
At St Luke’s Highton we encourage children to be active and creative during playtime. Our kindergarten features plenty of outdoor and indoor spaces where children can practice activities such as climbing, ball sports, and gardening which improves development including coordination, balance, posture, strength, and endurance.
