***Children must be 3 years old before the preschool year starts in February. Enrolment is for the entire year and Ross Circuit Preschool does not do mid-year intakes.
Ross Circuit Preschool is committed to providing a rich inquiry and play based curriculum with educational outcomes which are guided by the Early Years Learning Framework and the National Quality Frameworks.
Our specific curriculums are appropriate for our 3 to 4 year olds (Early Years) and our 4 to 5 year olds (Transition Years). All are informed by our understanding of each child and their strengths, building confidence, curiosity and resilience.
The staff at Ross Circuit Preschool aim to support children in becoming emotionally and socially competent, confident and successful learners.
The frameworks under which we operate are:
EARLY YEARS LEARNING FRAMEWORK
These frameworks are used to enhance all children's participation and learning to continually improve our services and our work with children.
Children need to be 3-years-old to start preschool and it goes to the year before they start school which is generally 5-years-old.
No, we are not open during school holidays. We follow the NSW Department of Education school terms.
A community based preschool is an incorporated association managed by a volunteer committee of Preschool members and interested community parties. The board assists the Director and Staff to ensure the preschool is meeting all governance and regulatory requirements.
A change of clothes or two, a hat, lunchbox with morning tea and lunch and a drink bottle are mostly the things that you will need to pack for your child once they start preschool.
Our Parent handbook also has information on lunchbox ideas, specific wet weather clothes and so much more.
Our fees are set on a yearly basis by the Board of Management. Please contact us to get specific rates for your circumstances.
Concessions are available if you hold a current Health Care Card or Pension card. If you are of Aboriginal or Torres Strait Island descent concessions also apply.
The Child care Subsidy is not available for families at Ross Circuit Preschool.
