Experience sessional kinder with set hours

Provide flexibility for working parents with access to Extended Care
EXTENDED CARE PROGRAM
Yarra Warra Preschool and Bush Kinder offers an extended care program to meet the needs of the busy families in our community.
Our extended care program offers additional hours of care after kinder sessions. The benefit of our extended care program is that your child will be provided with quality care by our excellent educators while still experiencing the benefits of socialising in a smaller group environment with other kids from your community.
The care is based on an enrichment program that extends on the kinder’s creative philosophy. Our educators will also ensure that the children receive some downtime after a busy kinder session.
