Enrolment Policy and Information
What year will my child attend?
When we offer placementsWe will contact families by email in June of the year before your pre-prep child starts Kindy.
At times it may be possible to offer pre-prep age children 5 days/ week. It may also be possible to offer enrolment to children who have already turned 3 years old. This occurs only if places are still available after all pre-prep age children on the waiting list have been offered a place.
