How to Enrol
Waiting List
Please put your child’s name on our waiting list if they are 4yrs old or older or are turning 4yrs old before 31 July in the year that you wish them to attend. We will only take 3yr old children who turn 4yrs after 31 July if they meet Priority of Access guidelines outlined below and only once all our 4 - 5yr old places have been allocated.
Our PreSchool is currently full for 2026 but we are taking applications for 2027, 2028, 2029 and 2030. Our cut off time for applications to be received for the following year is the end of Term 3, all applications received after this date will be enrolled subject to availability and in order of Priority of Access and date received.
The Priority of Access Guidelines followed by state funded preschools are defined by NSW State Government funding Agreements.
In no particular order, these are:
• Children who are at risk of harm (from a child protection perspective).
• Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children.
• Children from low income families (children from a family holding a Health Care Card or Pensioner Concession Card (where the child is a named dependent on the card), or a Veteran Card, issued by the Australian Government)
• Children from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.
• Children with disabilities.
• Children in their year before school who must attend school in the following year by law.
Please click below to add your child to our waitlist and we will be in contact with you shortly. Please note that adding a child to our waitlist does not guarantee them a place at our PreSchool.

Session Times
The preschool is open 8.00am to 3.30pm Monday through to Friday during the school term. Children who meet the Department of Education and Communities incentive funding criteria will be eligible for 15 hours per week (2 days).
