Academic : Kindergarten

Kindergarten caters for both boys and girls in their pre-school year. Under the leadership of Mrs Ellen Boyd, and her assistants Mrs Sandra Wilgar and Mrs Hilary Reid, the children enjoy a varied and structured introduction to school life with the emphasis on learning through play.

There are a number of activities that will help your child prepare for the move to Kindergarten:

• Read to your child and show your son or daughter how enjoyable it can be
• Talk and listen to your child, for example, discuss places that you have visited
• Encourage your son or daughter to taste different foods and occasionally to eat meals as part of a large family group
• Encourage your child to put on a coat, practice doing up buttons, putting on shoes and using a knife and fork.

Hours of Attendance:

August-June 8.45am – 2.00pm (Including lunch)
8.45am – 12noon (Optional)
