Nashdale Public School offers a transition to school class for students entering Kindergarten in the following year. The program operates on Thursday and Friday of each term during school hours.
Students engage in activities based on the Early Years Learning Framework and are facilitated by a qualified Early Childhood trained teacher and are supported by a Learning Support Officer (Teacher's Aide).
Places are limited and offers for the following year are sent out in early Term Three. For further information please contact our friendly office staff.
