When to enrol in Preschool

If your child turns four on or before 31 July, you may enrol your child in that year. Contact us to find out how to enrol.

Please visit the enrolment page of our website to download a Preschool enrolment form.

How do the preschool attendance days work across the year?

Students in preschool attend the school on a three day and two day program cycle i.e. Students in Group A attend Monday to Wednesday for Terms 1 & 2 and Monday and Tuesday for Terms 3 & 4 (dropping the Wednesday). Students in Group B attend Thursday and Friday for Terms 1 & 2 and Wednesday to Friday for Term 3 & 4 (adding the Wednesday). Placement in the program stream is completed on enrolment.

Getting prepared

The NSW Department of Education Welcome to Preschool guide will help make the start of your child's learning journey a positive and happy experience. It contains handy hints to help prepare your child for Preschool. Additionally, refer to the side bar for our personalised Annandale Public School Preschool Handbook.

 

After your child's enrolment is confirmed, you will be invited to attend an informal enrolment interview to help us get to know your child, as well as an orientation session.
