In South Australia, ‘preschool’ and ‘kindergarten’ are the same! So, why should your child go to preschool?
Glad you asked! Going to preschool has a big impact on your child’s learning and development.
At preschool your child:
- is learning through play
- will develop skills such as counting, listening, communicating and problem solving
- makes friends
- is becoming a strong and confident learner.
There are so many reasons SA government preschools give children a great start, here’s the top 3:
- Government preschools are rated amongst the highest quality in Australia!
- Government preschool programs offer MUCH more than you might think. They offer a quality learning program delivered by a qualified early childhood teacher.
- Government preschools provide specialised support for children, including bilingual support and health and disability support.
If your child turns 4 after 31 October this year or before 1 May 2024, it’s time to enrol now!
You can also use a handy age calculator to work out when it’s time to enrol your child.
