Pre Prep 2027: Extended four year old kindergarten

St Paul’s Anglican Kindergarten offers Pre Prep to families seeking a four day program for their child’s four year old kindergarten year. The program also welcomes children who would benefit from an additional year of kindergarten before starting school.

Learning through play

Four consecutive days with familiar Teachers, Educators and small groups give children time to build friendships, develop independence and explore their interests in depth. 

For example, children who set up a pretend cafe on a Monday might return the next day to draw menus, count place settings and invite others to join. Through play, they practise early literacy and numeracy while learning to listen, share ideas and work together.

Our teaching team plans individual and small group experiences around children’s interests. 

The program includes:

– Little Learners Love Literacy with Milo Monkey

– Hands on science

– Visits from music, sport and yoga instructors.

Bush Kinder in Wattle Park: Children explore the natural environment and observe how it changes across the seasons. 

Visits to Mary MacKillop Reserve Playground strengthen connections with the local community, while visits to the local primary school help children become familiar with a school setting.

Enrolment and fees

The listed program fees apply to children eligible for Department of Education funding. Families whose children are ineligible pay the listed fees plus the amount otherwise covered by funding. For details about how places are allocated, please read our Pre Prep Selection Criteria.
