The Kinder Tick
This kinder has the Kinder Tick as we are an approved provider of a Victorian Government funded kindergarten program. That means your child is taking part in an evidence-informed, play-based learning program that meets government guidelines.
We found that our child needed lots of encouragement to to participate in anything before she started attending Ganbu Gulinj. Now she has found so much trust in the educators she doesn't need as much encouragement. Thank you so much!! It is really an exciting start for our little girl!
