Why our families choose Wagner Road Kindergarten

Wagner Road Kindergarten has been providing high quality early childhood education for more than 30 years. We are a Lady Gowrie affiliated kindergarten service.

We are located alongside Wagner Road Early Childhood Centre, and we offer a 5-day fortnight pre-prep program from 8.30am to 2.40pm, with access to before and after care and school holiday programs. Our centre has an integrate model of care with the kindergarten being a distinct service but working holistically with the childhood centre. Children move through different age groupings from one year to the next – their familiarity with the environment and educators in each room facilitates smooth, supportive and welcoming transitions, meaning children feel safe, secure and settled as they move onto kindergarten.
