Kindergarten

Welcome to Ashfield Public School with a successful start to school for our Kindergarten students. We offer:

Small class sizes

We maintain small class sizes so that each child receives personalised attention and support. This helps build confidence and encourages students to actively participate in all learning activities.

Tailored learning opportunities

Our programs are designed to meet the needs of our students.

For high-performing learners, we offer opportunities for accelerated learning that challenge and develop critical and creative thinking.

For students experiencing disability or special learning needs, we provides Individual Education Plans that set specific goals which are supported by targeted resources.

Systematic phonics and reading instruction

Early literacy is a key focus in Kindergarten. Our systematic phonics program supports students to develop strong foundational reading skills, setting them up for ongoing academic success.

Buddy Program with Year 5 & 6 students

Our friendly buddy program pairs Kindergarten students with caring Year 5 and 6 buddies. This mentorship fosters a sense of community, helps younger students settle in, and encourages positive social connections.

Interventions

We offer small group tuition to provide targeted literacy and numeracy support. These engaging and interactive sessions which create a fun learning environment while helping students build confidence and develop essential skills.

Opportunities include Lego Club, Gardening Club, Art Club, Yoga, Recorder, Junior Dance, Soccer Joeys, Junior Robotics, Junior Choir, Knitting Club, Chess Club and many other enriching experiences that support students’ interests, creativity and wellbeing.

Creative Arts & Sport

We offer a range of activities and opportunities for children to explore and develop their talents, build teamwork skills, and enjoy being active, creative and happy learners.
