Welcome to Freshwater Christian College’s Kindergarten in Cairns, where we offer a nurturing Christian-based education.

The exceptional Freshwater College team and qualified educators create a safe, caring, and happy learning environment that prepares your child for a lifelong journey of faith and knowledge.  With a focus on building strong relationships with families, we tailor our play-based learning to inspire and challenge every child.  We work closely with Prep teachers to ensure a seamless transition to Primary school, laying a solid foundation for their continued academic and spiritual growth. Join us as we nurture your child’s potential and faith together.

We cater for 60 children per day from 3 years of age until they are ready to attend Prep. We believe at Freshwater Christian Kindergarten that quality, trained staff is the key to our success; and research supports the premise that high-quality trained staff make a huge difference to the outcomes for children.

We have a full roster of a non-teaching Director, at least seven staff members consisting of one Early Childhood Teacher in each room, and a trained Educator in each room; plus support staff daily.

The centre has 2 sessions daily; Session One is between 7 am to 3 pm - Monday to Friday Session Two is between 3 pm to 5.30 pm - Monday to Friday.  

Our Bush Kindy program runs twice a week on Tuesday and Friday mornings during terms two and three outside in the bushland and creek on the edge of our College oval, and other spots around our beautiful property. It will run for 2-3 hours, in all weather conditions. These sessions are planned, but flexible.
