Turning 5 and starting school
New Entrants are children who are starting primary school for the very first time. Starting school is an important milestone in the life of a child. It is a time of change and adjustment both on the part of the child and his/her parents.
Introduction to our school
Children will have 2 pre-school visits, Tuesday afternoon, before they start school (More can be arranged if needed). Our administration team will contact parents with the visit dates once eligibility to enrol has been confirmed.
Visits are a valuable opportunity for the New Entrant children to get to know the other children and teachers in the class, and get a feel for the school. While the children are visiting their new class, there will be a couple of presentations about Point View School. Parents will have an opportunity to ask questions and meet other parents of New Entrant children.
Please note that children do not need to be in uniform for their visits but many children choose to.
Children who start at the beginning of an academic year, will be invited to attend two pre-school visits in November/December.
