Starting primary school is a significant milestone for both parents and children. We understand that it can bring about feelings of nervousness and apprehension. However, we are here to make the transition from kindergarten to prep as smooth and enjoyable as possible for you and your child.

We highly encourage all new prep students to participate in our transition program. This program provides multiple opportunities for them to visit the school, meet their teachers, familiarize themselves with the school environment, and make new friends. The specific dates for the transition program in 2024 will be finalized in term 3.

If you are considering enrolling your child at Kosciuszko Street Primary School for Prep 2025, we invite you to book a tour with a member of our leadership team. Taking a tour is a fantastic way to gain further insight into what your child's first year at Kossie will be like and to get a glimpse of their exciting journey throughout the next seven years. You can book a tour by following the links below or by contacting our general office directly.

Enrolment Information

The Department of Education has a statewide Foundation (Prep) enrolment timeline.

The timeline advises families when and how to enrol their child into Foundation (Prep) at a Victorian government primary school, including Kosciuszko Street Primary School.

Victorian State Schools can begin receiving Prep enrolments from Monday 15th of April. Unfortunately, we are unable to receive enrolment applications prior to this date. 

You can find information and resources about the enrolment timeline at: Enrolling in Foundation (Prep).
