How Do I Enrol?

Free Kinder 

  • We run under the FREE KINDER program, there are no mandatory term fees for any children 

  • There are no additional costs for excursions/incursions during the year

  • We do request that families make a small voluntary donation if possible, to support our high-quality programs

 

Note: Families must agree to have their government funding allocated to Thornbury Kindergarten (and not to another kindergarten or daycare) as part of the enrolment process.
