Kindergarten and Preschool Dulwich Hill

Our Preschool Program (3–6 Years)

We believe that children thrive when learning involves play, exploration, and meaningful connections. At Little Scribblers, our preschool curriculum for three to six-year-olds supports holistic development and strengthens the skills needed for starting primary school.

We blend inquiry-based learning with intentional teaching across various areas, including early literacy, numeracy, science, and the creative arts. Children enjoy hands-on experiences in STEAM, sport and physical education, dramatic play, and language-rich, fun activities. These are delivered in a small, close-knit environment that encourages 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.

Your Local Centre: Ashfield

Little Scribblers’ Ashfield location opened its doors in 2024, offering a modern, boutique learning environment created specifically for children in the years before school. With buses, trains, and Ashfield Aquatic Centre close by, it’s a convenient and trusted option for local families.

For children aged three to six, our preschool program offers a nurturing and community-focused environment led by long-standing educators. Through play-based learning, we foster literacy, numeracy, and readiness for school in a secure setting with open-ended experiences, a sandpit, and a dedicated outdoor playground. We celebrate each child’s individuality and help them grow as capable, confident learners.
