3-Year-Old Kindergarten

3-year-old enrolments are processed by the kindergarten.

2011: Places for 2011 are fully allocated. We are no longer taking applications.

2012: Applications for 2012 open at 4pm on March 5th, 2011 (early applications will not be accepted).

Unfortunately, our local kindergartens are unable to offer enough 3YO places to meet demand, so we regret that we cannot guarantee a place for every child. Our policy is to give all families an equal chance by offering places strictly "first in, first served" from the designated enrolment date (i.e. March 5th, 2011 for 2012 places). For full details, please view our 3YO enrolment policy.

PLEASE NOTE:

  • To apply for the 3 y.o program, your child must turn 3 years old by 31 January of the year they are to attend.
  • Preference will be given to children who live, work study or have childcare in the Glen Eira Council and nominate BWK as their 1st preference for four year old kindergarten, through the City of Glen Eira Central Enrolment Scheme.  This will be confirmed with the Glen Eira Council Kindergarten Enrolment list.
  • Completed application forms and a non-refundable application fee of $10 (cash only please) should be submitted in person at the kindergarten.
  • Your application may be submitted by a proxy (e.g. a relative or friend).
  • Each person may submit one application per family.
  • Places will be offered based on the order of receipt.
  • A receipt and acknowledgement letter showing your application number will be sent shortly after your application.
  • First round offer letters will be sent in June/July.

2012 application forms can be downloaded here.
