Term 3 holidays (22 September-02 October). Subject to AFL schedule (date TBC) – Friday before the AFL Grand Final

Located at Glen McKinnon Kindergarten
Cost $85 per day – Child Care Subsidy (CCS) does not apply. No refunds for withdrawals or non-attendance.

Led by Glen Education qualified educators, our holiday programs are engaging, inclusive and safe. From arts and sports to music, movement, environmental education, and cooking experiences, we ensure a rich and varied experience.

In our experience, children transition seamlessly into our holiday programs, even when they are enrolled at a different kindergarten. It is also a great opportunity for children to make new friends and socialise with other children of different ages and diverse backgrounds. Our educators understand the importance of a smooth transition, and they provide personalised orientation programs for children who need extra time to settle in comfortably. We prioritise the well-being and happiness of each child in our care.

What our families say…

"Thanks. The McKinnon kinder is a fabulous environment. My daughter came home happy every day. She had a ball! I appreciated the 4.30 pick up as well."

"It was great. Staff were lovely and welcoming. Fun activities to keep the children entertained and enjoying themselves."

"My daughter had a wonderful time given she did not know the teachers before. It was great to see photos of her activities during the day and that she was active outside. I would definitely send her again."

"I hope you do it again. My daughter loved it and it was immensely helpful as a working mum."

"The staff were amazing! My son attends a different Glen Education Kinder but he loved it. I cannot thank you enough for offering such a wonderful program!!"
