Prep Orientation Program
Our Prep Orientation program aims to facilitate a seamless transition to Primary School for your child. To optimise your child's Prep experience, we're providing the option of three sessions for your child to engage with our school community and enjoy activities to promote school readiness skills. Please select one of the three options below, either Tuesdays for two consecutive weeks, Wednesdays for two consecutive weeks or Fridays for two consecutive weeks to allow for consistent small group learning and give your child the opportunity to build solid relationships prior to starting school. Children need to be enrolled to attend our Prep orientation program.

Get Set for Prep Meeting
It is a requirement that all children attend a Get Set for Prep meeting prior to starting school. At this meeting, your child will take part in activities which will cover three developmental domains: motor skills, concepts and language. This is a great way for teachers to get to know your child and plan for their successful transition to Prep. Parents will have an opportunity to share information about their child and ask any questions they may have.
