22.01.2022 Kindergarten Orientation We are currently planning how we will facilitate a Kindergarten Orientation for our young people starting with us in 2021. We are hoping to make it as special as we can and are looking at many ideas and options. If you know a family with a young person who will be joining us next year, please check they have started the enrolment process. We will be sending information via post, including invitations to Zoom events, and can only send them to those people who have provided their details to our office. You can tag them in this post, send them a text or give them a call. We want to make sure everyone is included. Regards, Chris Klein.
