About our Preschool program

Our Preschool program for 3-5 year olds is designed to prepare children for the transition to school. Based on the Early Years Learning Framework, our Preschool program provides a nurturing and engaging environment for children to explore, learn, and grow. We believe that every child deserves individualised attention and we tailor our program to meet the unique needs of each child.

Transition to School program

Our Transition to School program helps prepare children for the transition to formal schooling. We work closely with parents and local schools to ensure that our program aligns with the requirements of the child’s future school. Our educators focus on developing skills such as communication, problem-solving and socialisation to help children thrive in their future academic and social environments.

      Please note:

      • Submitting a booking request or enquiry does not constitute a confirmed booking. No booking is confirmed until you have received email confirmation from St Nicholas.

      • For casual and Vacation Care bookings, we have a 5-day cancellation policy, after which the parent/carer will be liable for their full fees for that session. For permanent bookings, we have a 2-week cancellation policy.

      • One-off cancellations for permanent bookings still require the parent/carer to pay their full fees for that session, unless the cancellation is permanent, in which case the family will forfeit their permanent place for that session.
