What happens next?
A letter of offer will be sent to parents in June/July of the year prior to commencement, so please ensure you update us if you change address or phone numbers. At this time you either accept or decline the offer of a position in our Kindergarten program. Once you have secured your child’s place, you will be invited to attend our Orientation Day (at date in November in the year prior to attendance).
On Orientation Day you will hear from your child’s teacher and members of the Committee, as to how our Kindergarten operates, the nature of our Early Years Curriculum and what your child is required to bring each day. You will also get to make a time to attend an initial interview with your child’s teacher. This allows parents the opportunity to share information about your child with their Kindergarten and assist in making the transition into our Kindergarten a positive one. Play dates are scheduled through November and December to support your child's orientation to Kindergarten.
