Kindy Sessions
Pre-Entry Program
At present, Pre-entry is offered in term 4 each year. Children attend for one 3 hour session per week during term 4 of the year before they start full time kindergarten.
Sessional Kindergarten
Children are entitled to receive 12 hours (4 sessions) of preschool per week. With Universal Access children are able to attend an additional 3 hours per week (1 session).
Sessions at Millicent North Kindergarten are currently available Monday-Thursday mornings and afternoons. Session combinations are negotiable and we endeavour to be as flexible as possible.
Once accepted, an attendance pattern will not change unless; you ask, a session is no longer available, or the individual needs of children dictate a different pattern.
When does my child start Kindy?
If your child turns four before May 1st, they are able to start Kindergarten on the first day of term one in that year. If they turn four after May 1st, they will start kindergarten on the first day of term one the following year.
If decided by the family, a child may start their kindergarten sessions the year they turn 5, but DfE policy states that children must start at school from the age of 6. Please speak with the kindergarten staff for more information regarding this policy.
