2026 Foundation (Prep) Information Booklet

The transition from an Early Childhood setting to school is a significant milestone for both you and your child.

The 2026 Foundation (Prep) Information Booklet(PDF, 2MB) provides essential details about local school open days, information sessions, and transition dates to help support a smooth and positive start to your child's schooling journey.

It has been produced by Council in partnership with primary schools from across the shire.

It also contains information about specialist primary schools in neighbouring shires, and Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) services.

It is important that all children starting school in 2026 participate in their enrolled school’s Foundation (Prep) Transition Program. 

Parents are encouraged to contact schools to discuss the prospective enrolment of their pre-school aged children for the 2026 school year. To start primary school in 2026, your child will need to turn 5 years old by 30 April 2026. Schooling is compulsory for children who have turned 6 years old.

If further information is required, contact individual schools directly on the details provided above.
