About Us

Welcome to Mungarra Kindergarten.

Mungarra Kindergarten is a privately owned long day care centre for children 6 weeks to 3 years old. Mungarra Kindergarten is licenced by the Department of Education and Care for 25 children per day. Mungarra Kindergarten has three groups of children. The Laughing Owls have up to 8 toddlers from 6 weeks to 18 months of age. The Barn Owls and Snowy Owls have up to 17 children who range in age from 18 months to three and a half.

We suggest that the year following when the children turn three, that they enrol in a Pre-school Program so as to prepare them for school. We have a relationship with other centres in the local area who offer a Pre-School Program.

Proprietors Jenny and Ken Angus are the owners of Mungarra Kindergarten. Ken is a chartered account and owns and runs an importing business. Jenny has a Diploma of teaching, A Graduate Diploma in Early Childhood, A Graduate Diploma in Educational Studies, (Reading) and A Graduate Diploma in Teaching English to Speakers of other Languages. Jenny has many years of teaching experience in the NSW state system in Early Childhood K-3, as an ESL teacher and as a Support Teacher Learning. In recent years Jenny has worked in Long Day care centres as a room leader. Jenny and Ken are both actively involved in their community and with their family of five children.

We believe in high quality childcare environments with qualifed staff and low ratios of children to staff.

We believe that infants and toddlers, 0-3 years old, are entitled to the best educational program. At Mungarra Kindergarten the children will be provided with developmentally appropriate play based learning experiences that are planned and spontaneous and are based on their interests.
