Welcome to
Brookville Kindergarten



Brookville Kindergarten is a community kindergarten that offers high-quality early childhood education and care to families who reside in the City of Stonnington and the broader community. Located adjacent to Brookville Gardens and Toorak Primary School, is staffed by a team of qualified, experienced and passionate teachers and educators.


Full-day programs

We take pride in being able to offer five kindergarten programs - all of which are offered as full-day programs (school hours). These include two 3-year-old programs, two 4-year-old programs and a combined 3 and 4-year-old specialist French program called Ecole Française de Melbourne.


A strong focus on your child's development

With three educators per room, our staffing ratio far exceeds the recommended regulatory requirement which ensures that your child's interests and development are nurtured.


Beautiful & natural facilities

Our beautiful, open-spaced natural grounds and welcoming indoor spaces are designed specifically to enrich the learning possibilities for all children. In 2019 we completed a significant upgrade to our 'Yellow Room' outdoor area and in early 2020 we completed a new landscape in our 'Green Room' outdoor area. This year, we are looking to create a permaculture garden in our 'Blue Room' outdoor area.



My son loves going to Brookville Kindergarten. When I observe him there, his eyes light up with curiosity and wonder. He comes home and tells me about all the bones in my body, how enormous the sun is and how to make words rhyme. Brookville Kindergarten has nurtured his spirit... His mind becomes alive.



Kate, mother of 3 boys



My son constantly surprises me with the interesting and thought-provoking experiences he has at kinder. He has also really flourished socially and I love watching his confidence grow every day.



Jade, mother



You learn how to respect the toys and the furniture.



What to expect at kindergarten, Milla, 3 years old



As a community kindergarten, Brookville is managed by parents - that means that you have an opportunity to be part of the Committee of Management and have a positive impact on the outcomes of your child’s education... And of course another benefit is the friendships you make along the way. My children aren’t the only ones who have made long-life friendships!



Amanda, mother of 2 and member of Committee of Management 2017



"You learn to pack up what you’re playing with.
I also know that we use our voice to solve problems."



What to expect at kindergarten, Noah, 4 years old



Both my girls have been through Brookville and loved it. It has been an ideal preparation for school, getting children into the same structure and hours and learning to be responsible for hats, jackets and other personal items. The transition for the eldest one to primary school was seamless... The teachers and management are professional with high-level and regular communication so that you know exactly what your children are learning.



Dee, mother of two



Protecting all Children



All Victorian organisations that provide services to children are required under the Child Safety and Wellbeing Act 2005 to ensure that they implement compulsory Child Safe Standards to protect children from harm. The Child Safe Standards include mandatory reporting. Brookville Kindergarten is committed to the protection of all children.
