The Kindiclub Preschool is well-respected, well-known preschool in East Gosford. In April 2024, Coastwide became the new owners and operators, bringing fresh direction, and initiatives to the centre.
Now Coastwide Preschool, this is a 29 place centre, for children aged 2 - 5, that prides itself on creating the stimulating, innovative, caring and open plan environment that children love to be in.
The wonderful team of Early Childhood Teachers, Diploma and Certificate trained educators, led by Director Samantha Malone, ensures that programming, environment, personalised attention and tailored learning experiences are present and vibrant for your child.
Our family grouping environment offers numerous advantages. It fosters a sense of belonging and community among children, as they interact with peers of various ages, akin to a family dynamic. This in turn sets up encouragement for empathy, cooperation, and social skills development as older children naturally mentor younger ones. It also promotes continuity and stability in care, as siblings can stay together, easing transitions for both children and parents.
In addition, our grouping supports collaborative learning opportunities, where children of different ages can engage in peer teaching and learning, promoting academic and socio-emotional growth for all involved. Overall, it enhances the sense of connection, support, and holistic development for children and families alike.
Our program is guided by the Early Years Learning Framework. As Early Childhood Professionals, we acknowledge the importance of time for children to explore and experiment, re-visit experiences and develop awareness of their individual abilities.
Our recent Exceeding National Quality Standards result is testament to the success of the program, our centre, our staff and most importantly is best represented by the achievements and learnings shown by the wonderful children in our care.
