Kindergarten

We are so excited to meet our 2026 Kindergarten students! We have produced a series of videos to show our new students some of the great things that happen here at big school.

Early Education Resource Hub

The aim of this hub is to allow parents and Early Childhood Educators easy access to resources that will assist in the transition to school and the early stages of Kindergarten.
Welcome to 'big school'

Starting school is a big milestone for children and their families. The transition to primary school can be both challenging and exciting.

Help your child through the transition by:

  • encouraging them to explore their feelings
  • helping them connect to their school
  • supporting them in building friendships and relationships
  • empowering them to build their confidence and independence.

Support your child to transition to primary school with our Getting ready for primary school

Getting Ready for School - Health & Development Check

This is the 4-year health and development check found in the Blue Book. If your child does not attend an early education setting where this service is offered (preschool or long day care), you can access the developmental check by visiting a Child and Family Health Centre to have your child screened.
