Parent‑Only Accompanied Sessions

These classes are designed for parents to be fully present with their child, supporting connection, confidence, and shared learning. Only parents may accompany their child, and we ask for at least 75% attendance across the term.

Family Member or Helper‑Accompanied Sessions

These sessions offer flexibility for families. A parent, family member, or helper may accompany the child, creating a warm, supportive environment where little ones feel safe and ready to explore.

2+ Transition Sessions

Designed for children who are 2 years old on or within the first month of term, these sessions gently support the transition toward more independent preschool routines. Children build confidence, social skills, and familiarity with group learning in a nurturing, age‑appropriate setting.

  • Childhood illnesses such as hand, foot and mouth should be reported to school so we can inform our families via email and offer information of signs and symptoms to look out for.
