Empowering our children to grow
Welcome to the Benwerrin Community
At Benwerrin, we are committed to providing children with opportunities to grow and develop in a culturally safe, innovative and sustainable learning environment. We acknowledge children as capable and competent and support them to grow as individuals within their community and culture. We celebrate diversity and are committed to inclusion and every child's right to access kindergarten.
Our engaging learning environment offers unique learning experiences for the children, with a team that genuinely care about education and making a positive impact in the children within our kinder. Our team take pride in role modelling our Commitments - creating a sense of belonging for all.
Benwerrin Preschool stands on the traditional lands of the Wurundjeri people and acknowledge their connection to the land, sky, and waters upon which we learn.
