Our school has been praised by prospective parents for helping to foster 'Communities of Faith, Hope, and Love'—this year’s Catholic Education Week (21-27 July) theme—before students have even started school. The school’s success lies in our innovative Pre-Prep program which fosters connection and belonging among future scholars and their families.
Launched in 2023, the unique program, which runs throughout Term 2 and 3, takes a holistic approach focusing on the academic, social, emotional, and spiritual development of future students.
The aim of the Ready Set Play Pre-Prep at Q of A program is to nurture a sense of connection and belonging among our future scholars and their families, The program welcomes all local families and immerses kindergarten aged children in play-based learning. Through song, movement, and rhyming, children develop foundational, literacy, and social skills in a joyful and engaging way. The structured play activities are designed to mirror a typical morning in Prep, helping our future scholars become familiar with the school environment and routines.
Our Pre-Prep program actively engages parents through informative sessions on child development and practical tips for supporting their child's educational journey, This collaborative approach ensures families are well-prepared to navigate the transition into formal schooling. The program ensures our future students are already comfortable with their surroundings and routines, making for a smooth start to their schooling experience where we can hit the ground running. We also invite families to various events throughout the year, including how whole school mass, school assemblies, and cultural and sporting events, further enhancing our future families connection to our school community.
