Three & Four Year Old
Kindergarten
A seamless transition into early education and formal schooling.
Our integrated 3 and 4 Year Old Program operates within a long day care model from 6:30 am to 6:00 pm. Led by qualified early-childhood teachers, this program is designed to provide a gentle, supportive transition from early learning into the formal schooling process. By combining foundational play-based learning with school readiness, we give children the confidence and skills they need to thrive.
Program benefits include:
- School Readiness: A gentle transition into the education process, setting children up for increased academic and social success
- Foundational Learning: A solid introduction to phonological awareness, literacy, and numeracy (led by specialist teaching staff for our 4-year-olds)
- School Connection: Gaining early knowledge of the school layout and routines, and developing positive relationships with ACC school children, 'buddies', and teachers
- Social & Emotional Growth: Developing strength and mastery of social and learning milestones in a supportive space
- Faith & Character: Modelling and establishing Christian values for young children in this vital stage of their education
- Family Support: An affordable, accessible cost structure that supports working families
Children in our 3–4 Year Old Program participate in:
- Pre-Foundation phonological awareness, literacy, and numeracy (numbers, patterns, sorting, days of the week)
- Gross motor skill development (e.g., ball skills, skipping, balancing, and climbing)
- Fine motor skill development (e.g., writing, drawing, cutting, arts and craft)
- Music, physical activity, and art lessons
- School events alongside ACC primary classes, including weekly School Services, Bible stories, prayer, and performances (singing, dance, acting, and instruments)
- Engaging incursions and excursions
