Transition to School
At St Brigid's we understand that transitioning to school is a big step for both children and their families. Our Early Years team endeavour to make this transition as smooth as possible for our little people, this involves:
- A 6 visit transition period prior to your child commencing school
- Early Years teaching staff visit children in their Pre-School/Childcare environment prior to your child starting school
- We have a Playgroup that runs on a Tuesday and Wednesday from 9am - 11am each week. Playgroup is a great way for your child to become familiar with the school and to build relationships with other future students
When Can My Child Start School?
We have two intakes of Reception Students each year.
| Term | Your child turns 5 on or before |
| 1 | 30 April |
| 3 | 31 October |
Children who commence school in Term 1 will complete 4 Terms of Reception, children who commence school in Term 3 will complete 6 Terms of Reception.
Does the school have any vacancies?
In any year there are approximately 54 vacancies for Reception children. We strongly recommend that you complete the Registration of Interest Form to express your interest of enrolment.
