Your local community Kinder in Ascot Vale
Ascot Kindergarten is a community-managed, not-for-profit kindergarten that was established by local residents in 1946.
Our passionate and dedicated staff offer quality, play-based education in both our three-year-old and four-year-old programs.
We offer a friendly environment that welcomes the involvement of our families and community.
Your local Kindergarten, run by locals
For over 70 years, Ascot Kindergarten has been preparing local Moonee Valley children for school and beyond.
Our kindergarten was established by local parents and is still managed by a volunteer parent committee today.

From little things, big things grow
The size of our Kinder means a calmer, more intimate environment where children are encouraged to be curious and creative learners, with a deep connection to their local community.
