3 Year Old Kindergarten 2025
1st year of Funded Kindergarten
To be eligible to attend three-year-old kindergarten, your child must turn three by 30 April in the year they attend kindergarten.
Children accessing three-year-old kindergarten will transition to four-year-old kindergarten the following year. No children will be eligible for a second year of funded 3-year-old kindergarten. If children need a third year of kindergarten and meet the criteria, they will do this at the end of the 4-year-old kindergarten year, prior to the transition to school.
Glen Eira City Council operates a Central Enrolment System for 3 & 4 year old enrolments.

Young children learn about the world through play. It gives children the opportunity to use their imagination and practise important skills. It also helps their social and emotional development, and wellbeing.
In a kindergarten program, children use play to build their language skills and learn about numbers and patterns. They also learn how to get along with others, share, listen, and manage their emotions. Teachers and educators help children become curious, creative and confident about learning.
