Preschool Enrolment

Government preschools have two major enrolment intakes each year, where children are eligible to access 4 terms of their full preschool entitlement (15 hours per week).

• Children turning 4 prior to May 1st commence preschool in January.
• Children turning 4 between May 1st and October 31st commence preschool in July (through the mid-year intake).
• Children turning 4 on or after October 31st commence preschool in January the following year.

Kindergarten hours

At South Port Kindergarten children attend two consecutive full day sessions either on Monday and Tuesday OR Wednesday and Thursday, and fortnightly on Friday morning.

Fees

The annual kindergarten fee is $500 ($125 per term). This helps towards covering general operating costs, excursion subsidies and the purchase of equipment and materials for a high quality, play-based learning program. This may appear to be a large amount, but if paid weekly it equates to $12.50 per week. These will be invoiced as two terms together ($250), which will occur in Terms 1 and 3.
