Prep is the first year of school and provides the foundation for your child's education.
It is a full-time program. Children attend Monday-Friday from 9am-3pm.

Enrolment age variations
Parents enrolling their child in school have the option of an early or delayed start. Enrolment age variations may be due to a child’s development and readiness, and could improve their ability to learn. Early enrolment by up to one month (child turns 5 by 31 July) may be possible, but only if the principal is satisfied the child is ready for education in Prep. You can delay a child's entry without approval by 1 year if you feel they are not ready, but when they start school, they should still start in the Prep year (and consequently will also have delayed entry to Year 1).
