About Butterfield House Kindergarten and Day Care
Welcome to Butterfield House Kindergarten and Day Care, located in the beautiful Jan Juc, along the stunning Great Ocean Road in Australia. Our institution is a point of interest and establishment that provides a nurturing and educational environment for children.
At Butterfield House, we believe in the importance of connecting children with the natural world. Surrounded by bush and open spaces, our students have the opportunity to explore and learn about the environment. Through play-based learning, we encourage them to think about the small and big things they can do to take care of their local surroundings and our planet.
With careful planning, we have created a center with high-quality physical spaces that blend indoor and outdoor areas, allowing for ample natural light. We emphasize the use of natural materials and have developed imaginative gardens and outdoor discovery areas to enhance the learning experience.
We value the connections between children, families, and trusted educators. Our programs are designed to meet the developmental needs of our preschoolers and provide meaningful experiences. Additionally, we recognize the importance of our connection to the world and have an intentional pedagogy that emphasizes nature and our responsibilities towards the planet.
As the first point of connection into Christian College's pathway, we strive to create a welcoming and inclusive environment. We prioritize understanding each family's needs and providing support accordingly. Our physical space is not only functional but also beautiful, creating a positive atmosphere for learning and growth.
Our Prekinder program is a gentle first step into our educational journey. Children develop a sense of belonging within their peer group and gain autonomy through play and exploration.
Preschool builds upon the foundation established in Prekinder. It introduces more complex ways of learning and encourages children to take ownership of their education. We also collaborate with the Junior Schools at each Christian College Campus to offer specialist subjects such as Music, Japanese, and Library.
Our day care program is the lynchpin of our institution. With highly qualified and experienced educators, children have access to the same resources and environments as our sessional programs. We prioritize the well-being and development of all children across all learning environments.
If you are interested in enrolling your child in our 3-year-old and 4-year-old programs, we invite you to click on the link below to join our waitlist. Our online enrollment system allows you to complete an initial inquiry/waitlist form for the programs you are interested in.
At Butterfield House, we offer full and half-day options for children aged 3 to 5. Our group sizes are small, ensuring personalized attention and care. Children have full access to our thoughtfully designed spaces and resources.
We are proud to be one of the first schools in the region to introduce Bush Kinder, and we have recently added Beach Kinder to our program. These outdoor experiences not only develop fine and large motor skills but also foster a love for the planet and teach children how to protect it.
In our Preschool program, we challenge and expand key skills across all developmental areas in preparation for Junior school. Specialist subjects like Music, Japanese, and Library are introduced. Through play, we seamlessly integrate indoor and outdoor activities into the daily routines.
Butterfield House Kindergarten acknowledges the support of the Victorian Government. We are part of Christian College Geelong, an Independent College with five campuses and two early learning centers across Geelong, Bellarine Peninsula, and Surf Coast.
Join us at Butterfield House Kindergarten and Day Care, where we provide a nurturing, educational, and nature-focused environment for your child's growth and development.
