Welcome to Kindergarten Program

We are thrilled to extend a warm welcome to all our new Kindergarten families! At St. Margaret's Public School we believe in fostering a strong foundation for your child's education, and the Welcome to Kindergarten program is designed with that in mind.

Welcome to Kindergarten is not just a program; it's a journey that brings together families, schools, and community partners to ensure a smooth transition into school life. Rooted in comprehensive research and family engagement principles, Welcome to Kindergarten aims to create a supportive environment where families feel empowered to be active participants in their child's learning journey.
