The level of care and education my son received here was so high. The teachers are caring, attentive and amazingly patient. I used to literally carry my son into childcare kicking and screaming- but he ran in smiling every day to Newland Park Kindergarten delighted to be there for every single second. I cannot wait for my second son and daughter to start here in the future. I highly recommend this wonderful kindergarten.

Great kindy with an abundance of indoor and outdoor activities. Staff are nurturing, supportive and involved to both caregivers and children.

NPK = excellent. Curriculum is upto date and based on educational literature. Staff are friendly supportive caring and good communicators. Parents library is full of helpful books for child behaviour. Playground is safe and good safety policies in place. All staff are excellent and especially Alex. If you get a spot, grab it.

Moving our family to Adelaide when we didn't know anyone here was HARD. A great kindie made it way easier. As a full time dad, I've always been pretty purposeful in how I've raised kids - I interviewed a few really well adjusted, kind, successful people before our first daughter was born, and tried to figure out what made them good people. It turns out the answer they all had in common was "an outdoor childhood." They learned how to play, cooperate, take turns, and resolve fights amongst themselves through unstructured, outdoor play. I've always been a bit uneasy with the weather-driven "what are we gonna do (inside) today" nature of kindie in Canada, but NPK makes the most of the outdoor environment. Kids learn by doing at this age, and there's tons of doing. Each play interaction presents an opportunity for social emotional learning, and teachers are there to help the kids learn "everything that they ever needed to know, they learn in kindergarten." Direct, respectful communication, taking turns, the kind of stuff you need in order to be a good human. Beyond that, NPK formed an incredibly supportive community. Chatting with other parents at school pickup turned into hangout sessions at the tennis court pump track after school, which turned into group birthdays, pool parties, road trips, and lifelong friendships. Right now I value NPK for the family friendships that came out of it - but 20 years from now, I think I'll value it for setting the foundation of my kids becoming good people.

Lovely teachers my child loves it, he has come along away since I have enrolled him.

Our experience was very positive. Provided a rich range of indoor and outdoor play based learning experiences. The outdoor space has been further developed providing an even richer range of resources and activities. Adjoining gum trees even occasionally host visiting koalas for the kids to spot.

A great place to send your kids to play in a culvert during rising flood waters. Children in Singapore have learnt to read by 4, whereas children at Newland Park are taught how to throw stones in the creek, day in and day out; literally, a stone-age education. If you ever need proof of the low standards of education in Australia, look right here: troglodyte dullards with nothing to offer the world but their sense of entitlement, playing in the sun, and dragging their knuckles behind them.

When you have kids running amuck and stripping flowers from private property, it doesn’t say much for the quality of the education.

Staff seem nice and perfectly capable. Good option for those in the far eastern suburbs.

We haven't chosen it for our children but many do and have positive things to say
