C&K - East Street Community Kindy

We aim to provide a friendly, secure atmosphere in which children are valued and encouraged to develop independence, self discipline and self esteem. The early years of a child’s life are recognised as vital years in development. Positive experiences at Kindergarten will give children a head start for future learning. The Hervey Bay Community Kindergarten is a community based organisation, operating since 1967 and caring for children 3½ – 5 years of age. It is administrated by a committee of parents currently using the centre. However, other community members may also be elected to the Management Committee. The Kindy is a non-profit making organisation with income derived from fees, a state Government subsidy and fund-raising activities. The Government subsidy is distributed by the Kindy’s Central Governing Body, the Crèche & Kindergarten Association (C&K).
