Kindergarten marks a crucial milestone in a child's developmental journey and is strongly recommended for all children. Early education helps set children up for a bright future where children learn skills that they'll take with them throughout their life.
Kindergarten plays a vital role in enhancing children’s health and wellbeing and helps them to develop strong social skills and encourages a love of learning.
Participation in kindergarten equips children with independence and confidence and ensures that a child is more likely to make a smooth transition into primary school.
