Welcome to Kirrip Kindergarten, our brand new kindergarten located in Wollert. We are keen to open our doors and welcome families from 31st Jan 2022. Our equipment is currently being unpacked in preparation for the start of the school year and we are really looking forward to having children and families join us.
When we open in the new year we will have a naming competition to identify our group names and would love to hear your thoughts, so please get your thinking caps on and start talking to your children about what they’d like.
As you prepare for kindergarten over the next few weeks, some of your children will be excited and others may be a little anxious, these are all very normal feelings.
You can help your child by talking about some of the things they will do at kinder, drive past (hopefully we will be open for tours in early Jan), let them choose their kinder bag and snack box, read stories together, and practice a good bye routine. Saying good bye is important and lets children know you will be coming back. While they cannot tell the time yet, they can follow routines; “Good bye Johnny, you have fun building and digging and I’ll be back after snack time”.
We are really looking forward to meeting you and your children as we embark on this learning journey together.
