Prep – A Seamless Transition Into Kindergarten

 

Our Prep program is designed to foster a love of learning in a nurturing and supportive environment, setting the stage for a smooth and confident transition into Kindergarten. With an emphasis on early literacy, numeracy, problem-solving, and creativity, children build essential skills that prepare them for the next exciting step in their educational journey.

 

Eligibility: Children must be turning 5 or have turned 4 before February 1

 

Flexible Attendance Options:

  • 5 days (Mon-Fri)
  • 3 days (Mon-Wed or Wed-Fri)
  • 2 days (Mon-Tues or Thurs-Fri)

Lifelong Learning Skills

We place a strong emphasis on play-based learning, a method through which children organise and understand their social world by actively interacting with people, objects and ideas.

Social-Emotional Learning

We help our littlest learners harness their energy and potential by teaching them to listen, pay attention, control their behaviour, and get along with others.

Kickstart to Kindergarten

Our Prep program is thoughtfully designed to ensure a seamless and confident transition into Kindergarten. To ease the transition, our program includes a dedicated five-day immersion into the Kindergarten environment during Term 4 each year.

Our Prep program is designed to nurture each child’s unique abilities and interests, ensuring they feel confident and excited about school. We invite you to take a virtual tour of our facilities to experience our welcoming environment and see first-hand how we create a supportive learning space for young learners.

"I believe that children develop lasting dispositions to learn through play. It is essential to provide learning and opportunities for children to explore, discover, create and imagine. Providing an environment that fosters self-confidence, trust, creativity and autonomy, is essential for independence, self-esteem and a positive sense of wellbeing."
