Bush School
Whole-body experiences, especially in natural environments, open up the senses and improve cognitive function in ways that learning indoors cannot replicate.
We take full advantage of our private school grounds and their unique position adjoining Perth’s idyllic Lake Claremont. Our Kindergarten offers an authentic nature play programme, including Bush School and Bush Art.
Student-centred learning
We combine the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Program, a globally recognised curriculum, with the Reggio Emilia approach. This emphasises student-centred, hands-on learning.
With the guidance of our Kindergarten teachers, each child develops the foundations for pre-literacy and pre-numeracy, while discovering the world around them. We explore their passions, encourage curiosity and uncover their interests.
We teach music, every day
Music education plays an essential role in developing flexible, focused and skilled minds. At Scotch College, this starts with our Pre-Kindergarten & Kindergarten students.
During kindy, they discover the fascinating links between music, memory and the brain with our Music Every Day programme.

Language learning
As an International Baccalaureate school, we nurture students with a global outlook. This begins when the brain is very receptive to learning languages. At kindy, our students get to learn French.
Tailored support
We are able to tailor your child's learning programme as a private kindergarten in Perth. With regular assessments of their learning, children develop skills in a wide range of areas.
All children are also screened by our Speech Pathologist and Occupational Therapist, so any underlying issues that may need attention can be identified early.
Flexi-day programmes
You choose the days your child attends our Kindergarten. Choose three, four or five days for your child to attend.
While we always attempt to accommodate families' preferences as much as possible, please note that all enrolments are dependent upon class availability.
