BawBaw Kindergarten Application and PPF Form - Group Logo
  • Baw Baw Shire Kindergarten Application Form

  • If you would like to place your child on the allocation list for a Baw Baw Shire Kindergarten please complete the following form.

    Eligibility 

    Born Between 

    Year Eligible for 4YO Year Eligible for 3YO
    1.5.2019 - 30.4.2020  2024  
    1.5.2020 - 30.4.2021   2024

    Children born between January to April are in the youngest sector of the group and may not be quite ready for the expectations of Kindergarten.  Families have the choice to defer their kindergarten year to the following year.  This would see their child turn four during the three-year-old kindergarten program and six in the year they commence school. Children will not be eligible to be funded for two years of 3-year-old kindergarten so please consider readiness before enrolment.

    If you have questions about deferring your child, or their readiness for Kindergarten, please contact Family & Children’s Services on 56242540.
