Welcome to

Acacia Ave Preschool, Mentone

At Acacia Avenue Preschool, we’ve created a warm and welcoming environment where children feel confident to explore, discover, and grow.

Creative, Sustainably Designed Outdoor Play Space

Our light-filled indoor spaces are thoughtfully designed to inspire creativity, curiosity, and connection. With inviting learning areas, engaging materials, and cosy corners for quiet time, children are supported to learn through play in ways that suit their individual style.

Outdoors, our spacious natural playground is a place for adventure—where children climb, dig, imagine, and connect with the world around them. It’s a space that encourages active play, resilience, and a deep love of nature.
