Kinder Start Program

During this five day program, the 2011 Kinder children will spend and hour each day in a Kindergarten classroom.
Children will be placed with a different teacher each day to help familiarise them to the school. Class lists will be placed on the wall outside the classroom to show you where your child will be for the morning.
Classroom teachers will have activities organised for the children, incorporating a variety of curriculum areas.
We ask parents to deliver their child to and collect their child from the classroom.
