Children who live in Lyons are automatically accepted at the school. Families who live outside the suburb are also welcome depending on availability of places within the child's receiving class.
Children entering kindergarten must have had their fifth birthday before 30 April in the year of enrolment.
Our library has a very good collection of picture books, beginning chapter books, literature for oder readers, reference and non-fiction material. It is automatically stocked with the Children's Book Council Shortlisted books every year.
There is a lost property cupboard located on the ground floor of the school opposite the library, where children and parents can look for misplaced items of clothing. It does help if all clothing is clearly marked so that its owner can be found.
Special voucher prizes are presented at assemblies throughout the year to recognise individual effort and excellence in classroom work.
