This week, we were delighted to welcome current Early Learning families and prospective families to our Kindergarten Open Morning, hosted by Sarah Herbert Deputy Principal Junior School and Erin Reedy Head of Kindergarten to Year 2. Our Year 6 leaders James K, Arlo F, Dorothy De Re, Chester G, Alexander B and Lucas G escorted families through our beautiful Kindergarten spaces where they met the passionate educators who support our youngest learners.
Children enjoyed outdoor play, with indoor activities also available. The program included a reading session led by teachers using the text of the day to encourage participation and confident speaking, a language experience with our Japanese and German teachers, and a joyful music session featuring Good Morning song in different languages, along with movement, dancing and singing. Families also gathered for morning tea in the staff area, where simultaneously craft and play experiences for the children happened.
Our Open Mornings offer an immersive experience, giving families insight into how IGS nurtures curiosity, confidence and a love of learning from the very first day of school.
Our next Kindergarten Open Mornings will be held on Wednesday 27 May 2026 and Wednesday 12 August 2026. Bookings are now open for the May event, with August registrations opening later in Term 2.
If you have friends or family considering Kindergarten in the coming years, we warmly encourage you to share our Kindergarten Open Morning events with them.
