Kindergarten and Preschool Croydon

Our Preschool Program (3–6 Years)

At Little Scribblers, our preschool program is built around the belief that children learn best through play, exploration, and meaningful relationships. Designed for children aged three to six years, our curriculum supports holistic development while building essential skills for the transition to primary school.

We combine inquiry-based learning with purposeful teaching in early literacy, numeracy, science, and creative arts. Children take part in hands-on STEAM projects, sport, dramatic play, and language-rich activities, all within a close, supportive environment that nurtures confidence and curiosity.

Our educators partner closely with families, sharing daily updates, term goals, and maintaining open communication so parents always feel informed and involved. By prioritising belonging, wellbeing, and independence, we help every child flourish before starting school.
