Kindy is offered for children in the year before they start Prep (i.e. children who turn 4 by 30 June).
A quality Kindy program is play based and will help to prepare your little one so they are ready to start school. Kindy runs for 15 hours a week for 40 weeks, or one school year and is delivered by a qualified early childhood teacher.
Kindy can be delivered in a number of ways, either at a Long Day Care Centre or a standalone kindy.
