Welcome to Booleroo Centre and District Kindergarten and Rural Care
Booleroo Centre and District Kindergarten with Rural Care operates as a stand alone site, however it is closely affiliated with the Booleroo Centre District School and is recognized as a birth to year 12 site by our community. Children are able to transition to parents school of choice, should you live in another town.
With the closure of the Melrose
Kindergarten service in 2008, children are now able to access kindy at Booleroo
and
For example, you may have a 3.5 year old child who is eligible for kindy! Your child may attend Rural Care (provided you have a booking) on a Monday or Friday, Kindy on Tuesday and Thursday (Booleroo and Wilmington Kindies operate the same days) and Play Centre on Wednesday!
Children may start pre entry to kindy the term before they turn 3.5 years old. Pre entry at Booleroo is during the Tuesday session.
Our site has been classified as a site at risk during Catastrophic Fire Alert Days. This means that when a Catastrophic Fire Alert is called, our site will be closed on that day. All parents will be contacted the night before closure. Please keep your radio on the ABC 639 AM frequency to keep track of current conditions or call 1800 000 279 or visit www.cfs.org.au
