Kindergarten

A message from Early Stage 1

Our classrooms have been buzzing with excitement as we count to the 100th day of Kindergarten and the big celebration is almost here! Please join us on Tuesday 28 July (Term 3, Week 2) for this special event. You are invited to visit your child's classroom starting at 10:30am, followed by a cake cutting. Students are encouraged to dress up as what they want to be when they grow up, showcasing their dreams and aspirations. We look forward to celebrating with you!

In Week 11, your child will bring home their first school report. This report provides information on what your child’s strengths are, their next steps in learning and a self-evaluation from your child about their own learning and time at school.
