From November each year, all children turning 6 within that academic year  (September to August) will automatically attend kindergarten for the full day on Wednesdays (8.25am – 3.30pm).  They will be in their own kindergarten during the morning and will then join our Stepping Stones group for the afternoon session.  There is no charge for the Stepping Stones afternoon.
