Registration open for three-year-old kindergarten

Registrations are now open for families to enrol their child in a City of Casey funded three-year-old kindergarten program for 2022.

Registration can be done via Council's online kindergarten parent portal.

If your child was born between 1 May 2018 and 30 April 2019, they are eligible to attend three-year-old kindergarten in 2022.

While Council has delivered a funded four-year-old kindergarten program for many years, 2022 will be the first time Council will also provide a funded three-year-old kindergarten program.

Council will determine which kindergartens will provide a three-year-old program following the registration period.

Centres will be selected based on demand for the service and the viability of the program at individual locations.

Council will also be updating its registration system, to give your child a better chance of having two years of kindergarten at the one location - something parents told us was important to them in our recent community consultation on kindergarten at Casey.

Parents are encouraged to consider which centre they would prefer for four-year-old-kindergarten at the time they are selecting their preference for three-year-old kindergarten.
