Our programs

Preschool

If your child turns 4 before 1 May, they can start preschool at the beginning of the year. If your child turns 4 on or after 1 May, they can start the next year. Preschool children are entitled to 15 hours of preschool a week.

Children who identify as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander, as well as Children in Care, are eligible for 12 hours of preschool after they turn 3. They will then be eligible for 15 hours per week of preschool as soon as they turn 4.
