2024 Kindergarten enrolment open from 4 July

Published on 05 July 2023

Expressions of interest for 2024 kindergarten enrolments across Loddon Shire are open from 4 July.

A new online form, which will be available until the end of August, provides an easier and more efficient way for families to enrol and re-enrol their children in kindergarten.

“As well as ensuring a smoother process for families, the expression of interest also helps Council more effectively manage kindergarten places and access across the Shire,” Council’s Director Community Wellbeing Wendy Gladman said.

The streamlined process balances the need for mandatory enrolment information and approval forms with a more user friendly interface and provides face to face assistance when needed.

“Additionally, it allows an easier re-enrolment process for parents and carers of children moving from the three year old program into four-year-old kinder.”

Mrs Gladman said the new online enrolment process was introduced following feedback from families.

“Our kindergarten families told us that the current enrolment and re-enrolment processes were quite involved, and would like this process be easier, particularly for re-enrolments.”

Parents and carers who would like to submit an expression of interest to enrol their child or children in the 2024 three or four-year-old kindergarten program can visit

“Our staff at kindergartens across Loddon Shire are also happy to provide face-to-face support for families who may be having trouble accessing the online enrolment form,” Mrs Gladman added.

“We look forward to receiving kindergarten expressions of interest from our families and sending out first round offers from 11 September this year.

“Second round offers will be sent to families from 29 September.”
