Kinder enrolments 2022

Three-Year-Old Kindergarten will be funded in 2022 

 

Do you know a child who will be turn three by April 30 2022? 

Every child deserves the opportunity to have the best start. That’s why Three-Year-Old Kindergarten will be funded from 2022. This means an extra year of learning, playing and making friends for children.

 

From next year, Oakleigh PS Kindergarten will be offering five hours a week of a funded Three-Year-Old Kindergarten program. 

 

Currently, the Victorian Government funds kindergarten programs in the year before school, which is known as ‘Four-Year-Old Kindergarten’.

 

Research shows that two years of kindergarten are better than one. And these benefits last into school years and beyond.

 

Just like with Four-Year-Old Kindergarten, Three-Year-Old Kindergarten programs will be tailored to meet the needs of children. Qualified teachers will support children’s learning and development through play-based learning.
