Enrolment Process

 

Highland Grove’s enrolment process begins by completing a waitlist application.

 

You can do that simply by downloading the form from our 'Forms' Page, or ringing us to make an appointment. One of our Directors will show you around our centre and you can fill out the form in person.

 

In the September of the year before your child is age eligible to start preschool Kylie contacts families on the waitlist to offer them a place for the following year.

 

Once the days of attendance are confirmed, families will receive an enrolment pack in the mail. The pack will include a letter of enrolment, which outlines the enrolment process, an Enrolment Form, a “Getting to know your preschooler” Form and an Information Book.

 

Families are invited to attend our Parent Information Evening in the November. We also ask families to RSVP to one of the Orientation afternoons held for new preschoolers. These occur in late November and early December and are a lovely opportunity to experience some of our preschool activities and meet the staff.

 

At this time the Fee Deposit (bond) and Enrolment Fee are paid. Families are also asked to bring along a copy of their child’s current Immunization Certificate and Birth Certificate.

 

Most of our new enrolments occur at the start of a year, with the children starting preschool in late January. Occasionally we do have midyear enrolments and Kylie simply goes to the next child on the waitlist to offer this position and they receive an individual enrolment, including a visit for the preschooler and “tour” with one of our Directors.

 

Highland Grove has an open door policy and welcomes visitors to our centre at any time. If you would like a longer stay and a chat with Kylie or Michelle please call to book in a time. We’d love to show you around.
