What has changed about kinder?
Is my child eligible?
- Children must turn 3 before 30 April in the year they attend to qualify for 3YO kindergarten.
- Families can only receive free kindergarten from one service (e.g., long day care or sessional kinder).
- Check your child’s eligibility and start date here:
https://www.vic.gov.au/give-your-child-the-best-start-in-life
- Children born January to April can choose to start 3YO kinder either the year they turn 3 or the year they turn 4.
- Due to staffing rules, children start attending kindergarten only after their 3rd birthday — some may start partway through Term 1.
- Children turning six late in the year may attend 4YO kinder that year and start school the following year.
