Highly recommend Pope Road Kindergarten for any families who want a well-thought through and considered early education program for their child. Every single initiative, idea, conversation or activity your child participates in has purpose, and they encourage your child to think critically. The (amazing) educators are there to guide your child's learning, not to tell them what to think or do. It's be only 4 months for our family, but it feels like we've been attending for years. We feel connected to the kindergarten, and to the families, with lots of social activities organised by the parent committee. The educators go well beyond their scope to share insights about your child's learning experiences and ways to enhance their overall experience. It's extremely difficult to get a spot here, it's that popular! Recommend applying as soon as you can to secure your child's place, you absolutely will not regret it!

Pope Road Kinder is a haven. The staff are so genuinely loving and caring and have the best interests of the kids at the forefront of every day and learning experience. My daughter is so fortunate to have had her 4yo Kinder year here.

I went to Pope Rd back in 1989/1990 and have fond memories of this place from way back then. My brothers and sister followed after me so our family was part of the kinder for around six years until the mid 1990s. Now I have children going into kinder and would love to send them here, but I'm in a different council now. Great seeing all these reviews that the kinder is still highly regarded. Pope Rd will always have a special place in my heart.

We can’t speak highly enough of Pope Road Kindergarten! Pope Road is such an amazing place for kids and families alike. The sense of community, staff dedication and passion and nurture of children is evident in everything they do. It has been one of the best choices we have made for our children and I highly recommend this kindergarten.

Our son attended Pope road and had a wonderful time. The teachers here are outstanding and showed a level of care and commitment to their roles and to the children that really deserves praise. How fortunate for the community of Blackburn to have Pope Road kindergarten!

We feel so grateful to have found a nurturing and safe environment where both our children have felt happy and excited to go every day. Highly recommend to any parents looking for a loving, play based stimulating early learning environment.

If you’re after that magical kinder experience, a welcoming community, highly experienced and warm staff with an exemplary education program, look no further. We can’t wait to do it all again with our second born! I couldn’t recommend Pope Road highly enough.

After touring numerous local kinders we decided to send our son to Pope Rd Kindergarten and it was the best decision. The educators are by far the most caring, experienced and passionate you’ll find and they pay so much attention to detail with the education program they provide. Our son has really thrived under their care and we can see a huge difference in the quality of education compared to what other childcare centres and kinders offer, they truly deserve their “exceeding NQS” rating.

We are so happy with our experience at Pope Road Kindergarten! Our son absolutely loves going to kinder — he looks forward to every kinder day with so much excitement. It’s been wonderful to see how much he’s grown in confidence, creativity, and friendships since starting here. The teachers/educators are caring, nurturing, and create such a positive, welcoming environment. We truly feel that Pope Road Kindergarten is a special place where children are supported, encouraged, and celebrated. We are very grateful to be part of this beautiful community!
