A parent-run committee
Mitchelton Pre-Schooling Centre Inc is a community kindergarten affiliated with The Gowrie (Qld).
As a not-for profit kindergarten, we rely on the active involvement of families to guide and support the service. Our Parent Management Committee plays a vital role in fostering this partnership, strengthening our sense of community and ensuring that decisions reflect the needs and values of our families.
Supporting the Committee is our dedicated Nominated Supervisor, Educational Leader and Business Manager, whose leadership and expertise help ensure the smooth operation of our kindergarten and the delivery of a high-quality educational program.
Together we work to create a welcoming and inclusive environment where children thrive and have an ethos of continual improvement.
Our History
Mitchelton Pre-Schooling Centre Inc. (MPC) has a long and proud history of supporting local families. As a community Kindergarten, we value the dedication and commitment of the parents, educators and volunteers who have laid the foundations of MPC over many decades.
As we approach our 80th year of serving the Mitchelton and surrounding communities, we remain committed to preserving the trusted reputation we have built while embracing a clear vision for the future.
The original Mitchelton Community Preschool Association’s was established almost 80 years ago, with the kindergarten opening in 1949. Today, that original building has been replaced by three dedicated Kindergarten units set amongst expansive green spaces. The magnificent gum tree pictured here has stood the test of time and continues to stand proudly within our kindergarten grounds, a living reminder of our rich history and enduring connection to the community.
