Frequently asked questions.

  • Our sessions follow a per-term pricing model, with each session priced at $65.00 for a 2-hour block.

    Typically, school terms span 10 weeks, example 10 weeks x $65 = $650 for the term.

    Please note that payment for the program must be made in full one week prior to the start of the first session. Alternatively, we offer the option of two half payments - one at the beginning of the term and one at the mid-term point. If you would like to take advantage of this option, please inform Brooke two weeks prior to the start of the first session.

    A non-refundable $100 is required to secure your selected day and time. This will be deducted from the total amount.

  • Prep For School's School Readiness Program is crafted with the insight of an experienced Primary School educator who has witnessed the journeys of hundreds of Kindergarten children. Drawing on a deep understanding of the requirements of Kindergarten, we tailor activities to align with your child’s individual needs and goals.

    Additionally, our commitment to personalised learning is reflected in smaller group sizes. Our classes are capped at 9 children and that is with 2 educators in the space.

  • We take children from 3.5 years old. However we generally suggest that Prep For School is ideal for children who are going to school the next year.

    Ideally, we advise you to enroll your child in Prep For School from the start of Term 1 and have them attend the program for the duration of the year.
    It's never too late to enroll your child (we have had children begin in Term 4 and still see results).

    The learning and skill set we focus on at Prep For School progressively build upon each other from previous weeks and terms. Students enrolled for the entire year have the time to consolidate their skills and build the confidence needed to thrive.

  • No, our efficient 'Drop and Go' system is implemented for your convenience and to help foster your child's independence and resilience. Both drop-off and pick-up occur outside the front gate of the property. Your child will be personally escorted to and from the classroom, except in the case of wet-weather dismissal. If you foresee your child possibly experiencing separation anxiety, please notify us before the first session so that we can collaborate to create a personalised plan for a smooth transition.

  • We kindly request that children bring a small backpack to our sessions, equipped with a hat, drink bottle and a lunchbox containing a crunch and sip snack (a piece of fruit or vegetable).

  • Generally children aged 4-6 years old. However we have had children begin as young as 3.5 years old. For our younger students, we recommend a trial session before committing to the term.

  • Due to small class sizes and limited availability, your child has the opportunity to participate in a trial session for the School Readiness & Foundation Skills program. During this trial session, your child will attend for a duration of two hours, providing them with a comprehensive experience of our program. Additionally, this allows our educators to become acquainted with your child before providing feedback at the conclusion of the session.

    Please note that trial sessions are subject to a fee of $65.00 and needs to be paid before the trial commences.

  • As per our Cancellation Policy

    If cancellation is made due to sickness, holiday, etc. and at least 8 hours notice has been given, every effort will be made to rebook a make-up session (in a group). This ‘make-up’ session must be within the 14 days before or after the usual scheduled session. 'Make-up' sessions will not cross over to different terms.
