Wudinna RSL Memorial Kindergarten
Wudinna RSL Memorial Kindergarten offers a unique environment for young children and their families to connect, learn and engage with others. Our welcoming, homely, nature inspired indoor and outdoor play spaces allow every child a rich early learning experience. The kindergarten is part of the close-knit community of Wudinna and surrounding areas, and actively contributes to its wellbeing. All families of our community are encouraged to be involved in decision making either through the Governing Council or in informal ways.
We have a creative and caring staff team who believe that Early Childhood is the foundation on which children build their lives.
Our Beliefs
We believe:
- Every child is unique and brings diverse experiences, understandings and ways of being. Children are naturally curious and motivated to make sense of their world through play and relationships. We see children as capable and competent and rich in possibilities.
- Children learn best when they have a sense of belonging and feel safe to explore, take risks and solve problems. Having opportunities to have a voice in their learning, to think critically and creatively and to build on their existing knowledge supports children’s learning.
- Building respectful, reciprocal relationships with families and our community enables a shared commitment to the future of our youngest citizens.
- Learning environments that are warm, calm, reflect children’s lives and the natural world invite children’s engagement and learning. Effective learning environments offer children opportunities to make choices, to feel secluded, to collaborate with others, use their imaginations and challenge themselves. They offer a wide range of choices for children to follow their interests, explore their curiosities and lines of inquiry both independently and as part of groups.
Our Commitments
So we will:
- Ensure that our planning is strength based, reflects the uniqueness of each child and builds their connections and sense of belonging
- Enable children to actively explore, take risks and shape their own learning, in collaboration with educators and peers
- Actively work to build partnerships and relationships with families and the community to enable children to participate as citizens
- Create learning environments that reflect children’s lives and offer a wide range of choices for learning
Our Values
- Kindness
- Teamwork
- Challenge

Our Kindy motto is:
“At Wudinna Kindy we are learning for life”

“We the children of Wudinna RSL Memorial Kindergarten would like to say thankyou to the Aboriginal people – the traditional owners of the land. Thank you for looking after the country. Thankyou for giving us a place to go so that we can play on the land with our friends, see things growing like the trees, animals, and flowers for giving us a place to learn about it together.
Here is the land, here is the sky, here are my friends and here am I. We stand together, hand in hand, to respect and honour the Aboriginal People, the traditional owner of the land.”
