Toukley Public School has an exceptional Transition to School Program including our Kindergarten Orientation known as KindyStart. This program was recently recognised by the Dept of Education and Communities and an information video was professionally filmed for use at various Department conferences and seminars.
Our Transition to School Program is exceptional. Information evenings are held not only at our school but also at local Preschool facilities. Various programs are organised for both the children and their parents to make them all familiar and comfortable with our dynamic school environment.
KindyStart is our school's way of slowly introducing next year's Kindergarten students to school life. The children attend school one morning a week, either Tuesday or Thursday for the 15 weeks. They get to experience all aspects of school life including visiting classrooms, the school library, the school computer lab and the canteen. They are exposed to all our school's technology including ipads.
