OUR KINDER

Robert Cochrane Kindergarten is a not-for-profit community run kindergarten with programs for three and four year old children.

The kindergarten has a proud history dating back to 1911 that is reflected today in the grounds and building situated in the heart of Hawthorn. The community of parents ensure the history is respected and maintained through the operation of the Committee of Management, made up of volunteers from the parent community.

We are proud of our kindergarten, the quality of teaching and the learning experience for every child.

Robert Cochrane Kindergarten has a friendly team of educators with many years of experience in Early Childhood Education. Our educators are enthusiastic and highly regarded in the community for the quality of their teaching.

Our educators are engaged in regular professional development to improve their skills and knowledge and enhance the learning experience for our children. On an annual basis, our educators undertake First Aid training, program planning in relation to the Early Years Framework, Sustainability in the Early Childhood Setting and Play in the Natural Environment.

We are members of the Early Learning Association of Australia, Free Kindergarten Association Children's Services, PLAY Australia and Environmental Education in Early Childhood.
