Community - Kenmore Park Kindy

An integral part of the local community

Kenmore Park has enjoyed wide community support since its beginnings, back in 1968. It was a time of great change for the area, with Kenmore South State School opening in 1967 due to the ever-increasing population. The local Kenmore State High School was not far behind, opening its doors in 1972.

Approaching our 50th birthday, it gives us great pleasure to now be educating the children and grandchildren of the Kenmore Park community.

Kindy Dad James, attended Kenmore Park as a pre-schooler. Now running a successful business of his own, James is back with his son Jack, ensuring that Jack gets the same Kenmore Park start in life.

"It's been great to see Jack enjoying Kindy, especially as I have many fond memories of my time at Kenmore Park. He's always excited to go to Kindy and has made lots of friends."

Being a Kenmore Park parent offers many opportunities to be involved and take a more active part in the Kindy community. James has brought his skills to the committee table, coming on board as our Maintenance Coordinator in 2016.
