Kindergarten readiness month
During Kindergarten Open Week we invite parents to explore the local Kindergartens, meet teachers, ask questions and gather information, to help inform your decision in which Kindergarten to register your child for 3 and 4-year-old funded Kindergarten.
Parent Information Sessions
When: Monday 23 February, Wednesday 25 February & Wednesday 18 March 2026
You'll learn about the many benefits of kindergarten for your child's learning, development, and social confidence, understand how many hours of free kindergarten your family may be eligible for, and receive clear guidance on how and when to register.
Note: Bookings are required for Parent Information Sessions.
