Greater Shepparton City Council is reminding families that registrations for 2026 three-year-old and four-year-old kindergarten programs will close on Friday, August 8.
Parents, guardians and carers are encouraged to register online via council’s website to ensure their child secures a place at one of approximately 30 kindergarten programs available across the municipality in 2026.
The central registration process applies to both three-year-old kindergarten (two years before school) and four-year-old kindergarten (one year before school).
Families registering for three-year-old kindergarten must do so through council’s registration system, not directly with their preferred provider.
Placements are allocated in accordance with council’s ‘access to criteria’ guideline.
Three-year-old and four-year-old kindergarten is free or low cost for families who meet the eligibility criteria.
If your child attends a kindergarten program within a long day care setting, some fees may still apply.
For more information on kindergarten registrations and to register your child, visit greatershepparton.com.au/kindergarten-enrolment-information or contact council on 5832 9700.
