What is Kindergarten Orientation?

Kindergarten Orientation is a kindergarten program that allows students to meet teachers, familiarise themselves with the school and find out about the types of activities the children will be doing in Kindergarten.

When children attend this program, they settle into the first few weeks of school with greater ease, because they gain positive memories of the school and become keen and enthusiastic to attend.

Kindergarten Orientation 3 -day Program 

After completing enrolment for your child at Berala Public School, set them up for a successful transition to school by participating in a 3-day Kindergarten Orientation program.  Over the course of three weeks, your child will have the opportunity to attend three fun and engaging sessions in our Kindergarten classrooms. Children will be able to meet the teachers, play with other children starting school the following year and meet their Year 4 or Year 5 buddy and build a positive relationship with their new school.

Family Teddy Bears Picnic & Mingle with your Buddy

Following the Kindergarten Orientation program, we would like all families to join us for a family 'Teddy Bears Picnic' at school. Parents, carers and our Kindergarten 2025 students are welcome to attend. This is a wonderful opportunity for children to get to know their new school and classmates, and for parents to connect with each other and the Berala Public School teachers. Our Year 4 and Year 5 buddies will also be joining us to continue building relationships with our newest students. 

Please bring along your favourite soft toy and a morning tea snack and a blanket/mat to sit on.
