We are keen to meet our Kindergarten 2027 parents and to share our amazing school with you all.

Please RSVP to our School Readiness Parent Information Session here.

School Tours

Our school invites parents and carers looking to enrol for Kindergarten 2027 to join one of our school tours. School tours will run for approximately 30 minutes. You will be taken on a tour of our beautiful school grounds and see all the wonderful and exciting things that are happening at UPS.

Please register your attendance at one of the following sessions:

• Tuesday 23 June 2026 at 10 am
• Thursday 25 June at 2:15 pm

Kindergarten Enrolment Interviews

The enrolment interview is an integral part of the enrolment process. During the interview you and your child will meet with a member of our executive staff to go through the completed enrolment form and discuss your child's transition to school.  This is also your opportunity to discuss any medical conditions, custody issues or other special circumstances before your child starts school.  We want to know as much information as we can so that we can cater for your child as best we can from the first day they are with us. Further information will be communicated with families regarding interviews in September.

Student Discovery Sessions

We are excited to offer student discovery sessions, where your child will have the chance to learn and play alongside their future classmates and Kindergarten teachers in a welcoming classroom environment.

For some children this will be their first contact with school while others, with older siblings, will find it a familiar environment. For all the children, this visit will mark the first time they are expected to be a "school child". We want it to be a happy experience and one where they develop positive feelings about their new school.

We also supply you with an orientation pack and resources to help out - you are never in it alone and we are here to support you every step of the way.

Student discovery days will be held in November. Dates to be advised.

Parent Discovery Sessions

While the children engage in fun and educational activities as part of our student discovery sessions, parents are invited to attend informative parent discovery sessions. The purpose of these sessions is to provide valuable insights into our school programs, what to expect when starting school, and how to support your child's transition. You will also have the opportunity to ask questions as part of these sessions. This ensures you feel informed and empowered as you embark on this new journey together.

Parent discovery days will be held in November. Dates to be advised.

Kindergarten Best Start Assessment

Best Start Kindergarten Assessment is a literacy and numeracy assessment conducted for all Kindergarten students and identifies literacy and numeracy skills on entry to Kindergarten.  It has been conducted in all NSW public schools since 2010. This is a friendly, one-on-one activity, it is not a test and needs no preparation.

Best Start Assessments will be conducted during school time at the start of the 2027 school year.

For more information, see Best Start Kindergarten Assessment on the Department of Education's website.
