Starting Prep

Updated: October 21, 2024

Starting school can be a daunting experience for children and their parents. This page will be updated throughout the year to help you and your child get off to a great start at BEPS.

Prep Transition Program

Transition sessions will be held in Term 4. These sessions will involve experiencing games and activities with other children and visiting the Triciclo (Prep) Learning Community.

These sessions will also allow you the opportunity to ask questions, get information on other services, and meet other parents.

During these visits, we will welcome you on-site and if you need to bring a younger sibling, they are also welcome.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us at brunswick.east.ps@education.vic.gov.au. We will be glad to help in any way we can.

We look forward to meeting you.
