Pre-Prep (Kindy)
Our purpose-built Pre-Prep Centre in Coopers Plains is a short drive from our Primary School Campus and is part of the
Queensland Government Approved Kindergarten Program. We offer an educational play-based program for children
three years to school age with engaging facilities, caring staff and a spacious, exciting outdoor play area.
Our Kindergarten program offers children the chance to experience the joy of childhood while gaining skills that will build confidence, assist them in their overall development, and encourage them to grow and thrive.
We promote learning through play, as well as through planned activities and interactions.
We work alongside families to provide high-quality education and care within a warm, caring
and secure environment.

From our Head of Pre-Prep
In Pre-Prep, our Christ-centred, play-based program nurtures children’s learning, development, and well-being in a loving and faith-filled environment. We believe that each child is unique and our curriculum is built upon their individual abilities, interests, and cultural backgrounds.
With God’s love at the heart of all we do, our children feel safe and valued as they explore, discover, create, and problem-solve. Through dynamic and innovative experiences, they develop a deep connection to their world and grow in confidence, curiosity, and faith. Our outdoor spaces encourage exploration and an appreciation of nature, fostering their physical, social, emotional, and cognitive growth.
We look forward to welcoming your family into our Pre-Prep community, where your child will thrive in a caring, Christian environment and embark on a joyful journey of learning.
Mrs Amanda Palmby
Head of Pre-Prep
Life Early Learning Centre
In early 2022, Life Church opened Life Early Learning Centre on our Pre-Prep campus in Coopers Plains! A new 60-place Christian Long Day Care Service which supports families with children 6 weeks of age to Kindy. Children will be nurtured and equipped in a Christian environment through play-based learning which fosters a sense of belonging and confidence.
