Yandell Kindergarten

Yandell Kindergarten is such a blessing to my local community.

One of just 3 public Steiner kindergartens in Melbourne, I don’t take it for granted that my children have been able to experience this educational opportunity so close to our home.

Dedicated teaching staff, home like atmosphere with well considered open ended natural toys, beautiful outdoor space amongst the gums, organic food program, seasonal festivals and magical circle times.

My girls and I will always cherish our years at Yandell.

My daughter has absolutely flourished at Yandell Kindergarten! We have loved every moment. The teachers are kind and nurturing, allowing the children to be themselves and gently support their development, creativity and imagination. The toys are all made of natural materials. Fresh, nutritious organic food is provided every session, such as the bread the children make together with the teachers and eat fresh from the oven. The end of term festivals that celebrate the seasons is just gorgeous. The Winter Solstice festival being the highlight so far where the kindergarten was lit up with so many glowing candles and lanterns by night and we all shared a hearty soup made by the teachers out of vegetables the children all brought. It was absolutely magical. Yandell is such a special and unique place, there is just no place like it. We are so fortunate to have found this beautiful kindergarten.

Yandell is such a beautiful kinder with amazing Steiner teachers, a gentle but independence-building program, gorgeous toys and a wonderfully warm community! I couldn't imagine a more loving kinder environment for my children.

While I didn't send my kids here. I was impressed by their program and the staff when I was looking for a kindergarten.
