Transition to Kindy
Two transition visits are offered in the term prior to your child commencing kindy. These sessions are attended by children and their caregiver/s, providing the opportunity for families to become comfortable in our setting, to connect with educators, ask questions and build positive memories together.
Transition visits are usually scheduled on Fridays, with the dates shared with new families a term in advance.
The transition to kindy can be smooth for some children and trickier for others. We will work in partnership with you to personalise our approach during your child's first term with us.
