Notes
-
*This is the first date the kinder is open but each group will start with individual Term 1 orientation dates (your teacher will email you the details). Orientation is usually a short session (approx. 1 hour) and then the next session day is your child's first full kinder day.
-
Note that all start and end dates are relative to your group timetable and the days your child actually attends kinder.
-
Thornbury Kindergarten Term days may vary slightly from the state school term dates (i.e. to provide staff with curriculum/packup days).
-
Thornbury Kindergarten is closed on Public Holidays but is usually open all other days within term (i.e. kinder groups will run as usual on the Monday before Melbourne Cup Day). Your teacher will confirm via email.
