Welcome to
Fordham Avenue Kinder
We highly recommend if you are interested in exploring our kindergarten that you book a tour. Children are welcome to attend. The Enrolment Officer will conduct the tour. The teachers may not have much time to chat as they will be occupied with the children. Enrolments for 2027 are open from 1st May to 30th June in 2026. You can still register with the Council after 30 June 2026, however you will not be included in the first round of offers unless you meet the priority of access criteria.
We have limited vacancies in our First Year and Second Year groups for 2026. Please call Boroondara Council to secure your spot.
Fordham Avenue Kindergarten is excited to open its doors to families, enabling them to visit our service, explore the kindergarten setting and learn more about enrolling their child in 2026 and beyond. Come and visit us on our Open Day in May or book a tour using the button above.
Families can also view our kindergarten online by clicking on the virtual tours page or booking a tour using the booking button above. We look forward to meeting you and showing you around our wonderful kindergarten.
Our teachers are happy to provide information about our sessional kindergarten programs and any other questions parents may have about our service. We are offering 13 hours to our First Year groups (3 and 4 year olds) in 2026 and 19.5 hours to our Second Year groups (4 and 5 year olds) in 2026. Further details of our hours for 2026 and beyond are available in the “Term, Dates and Hours” tab on our website.
Fordham Avenue Kindergarten is opting into Free Kinder in 2026. Please see our “Term Dates, Hours & Fees” tab for more information.

We are thrilled to share that FAK were successful in our application for funding from the Victorian School Building Authority to support a playground upgrade at our kinder. The funding has been provided through the Department of Education as part of the Building Blocks Improvement grants program. The committee engaged Urban Discovery to support the playground design and redevelopment throughout 2025, and are very excited to now share the completed playgrounds with families.
