Register now for three and four year old kindergarten in 2024
Published on 31 May 2023
Families with child/children aged three or four years old in 2023 can register for kindergarten in 2024 from today, Tuesday 30 May 2023 through the Central Goldfields Shire Centralised Kindergarten Registration Program.
Kindergarten is a great way for children and their families to learn, have fun and make new friends. It also helps to set children up for a bright future by helping them learn important skills to take with them throughout their life. Kindergarten is now available from age three for even greater benefits.
All seven kindergartens in the Central Goldfields Shire are participating in in the Centralised Kindergarten Registration Program. Families can apply using one form to choose from the following kindergartens:
- A.G. Leech Kindergarten
- Back Creek Kinder (Talbot)
- Californian Gully Kindergarten
- Dunolly Kindergarten
- Goldfields Family Centre
- Roseberry House Early Learning Centre
- T.L. Stone Memorial Kindergarten
Go Goldfields Manager Carolyn Bartholomeusz said the Centralised Kindergarten Registration Program makes it simple and convenient for families to register their children into local kindergartens.
“Kinder education provides huge benefits for children’s health and wellbeing, social skills and confidence giving them a great foundation for the future.
“The Central Registration process was refined this year to manage kindergarten placements and ensure fair and transparent process for families and centres.”
All seven kindergartens in the Central Goldfields Shire want to see the best for all our children. If parents and carers haven’t visited kindergarten open days over the past month, they are encouraged to contact the kindergartens directly to arrange a time.
