West Hawthorn Pre-school is a community based, sessional kindergarten. We provide programs for three and four year old children. Established in 1947, West Hawthorn Pre-school has been providing enriching learning experiences for over 70 years. We are a friendly, caring and respected, not-for-profit, pre-school and can be found nestled amongst the peaceful and leafy surrounds of Smart Street Reserve. Our programs are based firmly on the philosophy that children’s work is play. We strive to ignite joy, curiosity, persistence and resilience in our children. To foster each child’s self esteem through group and individual experiences in a welcoming, relaxed and stimulating environment. We embrace diversity, celebrate uniqueness, and respect children and families from all cultures.
